Ingredients

  • 1.25 cups Flour, Wheat, bread flour

  • 0.25 cups Walnuts

  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon Spices, cinnamon, ground

  • 0.25 teaspoons Salt, table

  • 1 pinch Spices, nutmeg, ground

  • 1 pinch Spices, ginger, ground

  • 0.25 cups Sugar, brown

  • 0.75 cups Milk, whole milk

  • 1 spoon Oil, vegetable oil, canola

  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla, extract, natural

  • 2 piece Egg, fresh

  • 500 g Carrot, fresh

  • 0.5 spoons Orange, shell

  • 30 g Butter, unsalted

Steps

  1. Wash the carrots, peel them, grate them, and finely shred them. Place a pan on the stove and quickly toast the walnuts dry. Chop the toasted walnuts coarsely.

  2. In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. In another bowl, beat the eggs with a hand whisk, then add the sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla. Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients and gently mix with a whisk. Fold in the carrots, grated orange zest, and walnuts.

  3. Place a pan on the stove and heat it over medium heat. Add a piece of butter to the pan and wait for it to melt. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan to form a small pancake. You can cook multiple pancakes at the same time, depending on the size of the pan. Cook the pancakes for about 3 minutes. When bubbles start to form on the surface, flip them and cook for another 2 minutes. Repeat the process until all the pancakes are cooked.

  4. Arrange the carrot pancakes on plates and serve with homemade yogurt and strawberry jam.

Advice

It is best to use an organic orange, whose peel is not treated with pesticides. If you dont have an organic orange, soak the orange in hot water for a few minutes and wipe it well to remove the wax, which contains toxins. The content of a cup is 240 ml.
