Hey Kids (or should I say “the man who made her a mother”?), its Mothers Day on Sunday. That’s right only 4 days away and you know what that means? Breakfast in bed, a day of rest and, being waited on.
Your Mum is always there for you. She is the person you turn to when you have good news or when you need a pick-me-up. Mums are an invaluable part of our lives and they have dedicated themselves to keeping us happy and healthy, every day.
This year Mother’s Day will be a little different for everyone, however, someone as special as your Mum deserves a special day. Here are a few ways you can spoil your Mum at home this Mother’s Day.
Here are a few breakfast recipe specialities:
Mix all ingredients, except almonds, together in a bowl, cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning check consistency, the muesli may need loosening with a little milk. Spoon into a pretty bowl and top with slivered almonds and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
Servings: 6-8 large pancakes
Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl and mix well.
Beat the egg and milk together in a bowl. In a different bowl, add the milk mixture to the melted butter, stirring constantly with a whisk to blend.
Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just enough to moisten the flour mixture. It should look a little lumpy. (If you overwork the mixture, the pancakes will be tough.) This is a thick batter but if it seems too thick, add a bit more milk.
Heat a griddle or nonstick pan over medium heat and coat it with vegetable oil. Drop the batter from a large spoon (about 1/4 cup) and cook until the first side is golden brown, or until the top surface bubbles and is dotted with holes. Flip and cook until the other side is golden brown. This happens quickly so peek after 30 seconds and watch carefully! Adjust the heat setting if necessary. Wipe the griddle totally clean with a paper towel between batches. Serve immediately.
We wish everyone a very Happy Mother’s Day.
