Very Chocolatey American Pancakes

Very Chocolatey American Style Pancakes- American style pancakes with added cocoa powder and chocolate chips to make them extra chocolatey. Perfect for dessert with whipped cream or ice-cream on Pancake day! Pancake Day is just around the corner! We are going for American style pancakes again this year for two reasons. The main reason is convenience. They are easy to make in big batches and then freeze, so you can whip them out the night before you need them and away you go. Also, I have just grown to prefer them. They are more substantial and a bit firmer, less floppy, than traditional British pancakes. Last time, I made banana pancakes which were really nice and were good for breakfast or dessert. This time, as it will be evening when we have them, I wanted something much more desserty, so I went for chocolate pancakes. They ended up being very chocolatey as I added cocoa powder and chocolate chips! Instinctively, I wanted to put the chocolate chips in the pancake batter. I decided ...

Chocolate Orange Drizzle Cake

This week I have made a Chocolate Orange Drizzle Cake in honour of the Great British Bake Off and as part of the #GBBOTwitterBakeAlong. The new series started this week with a whole set of new bakers and new challenges for us baking addicts to soak up. The first episode had the bakers taking on drizzle cakes, jaffa cakes and mirror cakes. I was pleased to see that they were going back to some basics that we might at least have heard of!

So I made a Chocolate Orange Drizzle cake. It's a moist chocolate orange cake with orange curd running through it and orange sugar drizzle poured over the top...

Baked Banana Coconut Porridge

If you're a regular Twitter user you have probably seen the #Teacher5aday tweets that trend regularly. It was borne out of this blog post by Martyn Reah- #teacher5aday which was a call to action to teachers to take better care of themselves and each other, so that they don't burn out, give up the job that they love and contribute to a predicted recruitment crisis. Sadly, the crisis is upon us 18 months later, so it's more important than ever that we look after each other. The hashtag has spawned further related hashtags that you might have seen: #teacher5adayread (encouraging reading for pleasure, not work) #teacher5adaysew, #teacher5adaycook and so on. Then Vicki Vincent (@MissVicki_V) wrote a great blog post about #teacher5adaybreakfast . It was about the importance of us 1) actually making time to have breakfast and 2) trying to make it a healthy one, instead of the usual teacher practice of racing round on an empty stomach and grabbing a biscuit as you fly past the sta...
