Apple Oatmeal Pancakes
Jul 14, 2005
Rhubarb is a much-loved Nova Scotia ingredient, and never has it had such elegant treatment as Chef Ray Bear gives it at Gio in Halifax.
Using a blender to mix the milk and chocolate gives this indulgent drink a lovely frothy texture. Just make sure to cover the lid's vent with a kitchen towel so none of the hot milk splatters while the motor is running.
With the tiniest stretch of imagination, this creamy concoction tastes like a mouthful of oatmeal cookies – minus the raisins, of course!
This creamy apple pie with a crunchy top is a scrumptious way to get your apple a day.
Serve these doughnuts warm to holiday houseguests and they'll never want to leave. The prune and lemon filling gives these a sweet and sophisticated flavour, but you can substitute whatever jam you have on hand if you prefer. Save the scraps from the second round of doughnuts to fry and roll in sugar as a bonus treat.
Variations of these flavourful little fritters, called Phulourie, are found all over the Caribbean. They are quick to whip up and best eaten hot and fresh. Serve with Mango Sauce.
