Grandma Irenas Palacsinta (Hungarian Crepes)

My Hungarian grandmother has made this for us ever since we were kids…certainly not health food but maybe one of the tastiest things you’ll ever eat! Make it for breakfast or dessert.

Step: 1

Combine the flour and eggs and mix until smooth. Add the milk, soda water, vegetable oil, and salt and mix to combine; refrigerate the batter overnight.

Step: 2

To make the pancakes, heat a lightly greased frying pan over medium heat. Remove the batter from the refrigerator and mix well. Pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and cook the pancake for about one minute. Flip it over and cook for another minute, or until golden brown. Remove the pancake from the pan and place it on waxed paper. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the pancakes while keeping them separate with waxed paper.

Step: 3

To make the filling, combine the chopped almonds, 1/2 cup sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and rum (if desired) in a saucepan. Cook and stir over low heat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is creamy. Allow it to cool slightly before filling the pancakes.

Step: 4

For the chocolate topping, combine the water, 1/2 cup sugar, and chocolate in a saucepan and cook over low heat just until the chocolate melts. Remove the pan from the heat and add the margarine, stirring until melted and combined.

Step: 5

Spread 1 heaping tablespoon of almond filling onto each pancake, rolling them up and placing them on a platter. (You will have 10 to 15 total, depending on their size.) Pour the chocolate topping over the platter of rolled pancakes. If desired, warm the platter in a microwave for about 30 seconds before serving.

Eating good breakfast to continue the day has become a good habit. It’s a great way to start my 24 hours off healthfully. The sugar hit from the pickle tree wakes me up and bring me energy to take on the morning. Sugar is often vilified as the evil of all disease, but fruit is also loaded with fibre, which is great for your stomach system and helps keep you feeling full all day , and not want likely grab a snack out of the vending machine before lunchtime.

Making fruit a at 7.00 clock habit is simple . Simply put the sweetness in your refrigerator next to the milk or on the bench next to your cereal bowl , or beside your coffee maker or tea kettle — about anywhere where you’ll see it. Before you eat the rest of your breakfast , eat your fruit. If you’re not normally a breakfast person.
