Hi all 👋🏻 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmVHzKGey9cyzaw9MzyUwL81Kk2oh9VvbpSZt2Ti8Yo3kw/img_3431.jpeg) As it is finally spring/ summer here… (It seems we skipped spring to be honest) 😁 I have been able to harvest out of my garden already… No, not the veggies I have only planted and sowed during the last 2 weeks, they are not even close to harvesting yet. I have been picking some flowers that grow all over the place in my garden 🌼 (and yours probably too) for some it is even a weed… but not for me 😉 Let me introduce to you “THE #beautiful and #delicious #DANDELION” If you don’t know it yet… we can eat the entire dandelion plant. The flowers, leaves and even the root. In different ways of course /recipes. Like salads, teas or…. Like this; Today I want to share with you how I made dandelion pancakes 🥞 from the dandelion flowers 🌼🌼🌼 Today’s selection will be of *19 PHOTOGRAPHS* Date: **28 MAY 2024.** The Photographs in this post are all taken with my phone 📱🤓 I will follow the time stamps on them. So it looks like you are right there with me cooking something delicious 😋 Let’s start at the beginning… I went outside into my garden to pick some flower heads of the dandelion plant. You can cut them with scissors or just pluck them off. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmYSK7KvAx13vVm3iZjPMTrXKvUAtADPdPP6S5UFBSBXUW/img_3387.jpeg) After a while I collected enough for a small stack of pancakes 🥞 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmaTpzVFdwDTxy56293HjtYG9SBQawgx92XcUzvfU3rdMR/img_3388.jpeg) I looked closely at them to make sure the small tiny insects 🐜 could leave / crawl out and remain in the garden. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmbd56t3Dz5JQzcmNnjvCJAybT9zMtiniCwfgfeagYbdwe/img_3390.jpeg) Next I plucked out the yellow petals as we do not want the green more bitter parts for this recipe. 🌼🌼🌼 The yellow petals are nice and sweet. 😊 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmVSRe9bG5ZkiFkK1orNdM6vnbmohRyniUVL7xcRwphUN3/img_3399.jpeg) Once inside I wash them in a sieve. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNuw8UCgtdtdXgFzmtazLRAZsKaX9BYQL4KsikGnUcpgQ/img_3402.jpeg) And place the sieve in some water in a bowl. More little little creatures can escape this way. I didn't see more after a while so all fine. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmZdBBmExoPyVM3LZZgKH2v5jJjXMv5RDEJgxLVpyTc9oX/img_3403.jpeg) Let us prepare the pancake batter now. I use 4 eggs 🥚 and plain flower ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmaVxkMbyiHHDQ6UGL1v9LFsuGHwJEzBirpcHVdaoPtSTJ/img_3405.jpeg) A little bit of some sea salt 🧂 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmRvvYCR6saAs2TmTZw6cLdWXKSJPSqzyqQZA3o6oEsUXW/img_3406.jpeg) Top it off with milk 🥛 (I never measure and do this on a feeling) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmZfE9xTgi4Fd8YDVXviUXjemcmqsjCjPReCy5w1UYF45u/img_3409.jpeg) I mix it all well… 🥣 and add more milk bit by bit… ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmXbjbDJQwyyE2B3MD9CnoFHwj1Liot7mVqbgUr7pA7RW2/img_3410.jpeg) Until I think the pancake batter is just right. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmSzhTt9yVzs5iAdW1vTHzPygjoPdYLC7KaNRdR5Rgi5AJ/img_3411.jpeg) Now I add the dandelion flowers 🌼🌼🌼 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmTZdgcZidtAafM7HngbvFkwGYdwtDMEut682qCSJUESXb/img_3412.jpeg) Fold them in with a spatula ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmeQ5JWohcmqE5AP1rZ2TtN3rQUc45w9qD36CM1s9uhCX9/img_3417.jpeg) If all is done I add some olive oil to the pan once it is heated well over medium to high heat. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmYXMEZehE8BsYFohgmrGhZTokMTPkGkYxE4KHqby2hfUa/img_3414.jpeg) Adding the pancake batter 😊 so exciting ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmb9WszHzjJkBHkmJ3TyhF2cSih6euZi6hZsCHu16hc47J/img_3420.jpeg) Turning the little pancakes when one side is done 😁 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmTeVgfE8VFtMH9YecDbZoKQyLkJC4ruMQiDE31kVbDfy6/img_3423.jpeg) I did fit 3 small pancakes in each go… and continued until the pancake batter was all gone. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmcAHtQz3K7rm1AKeXnXcGQm5dYSKwoegJEcrUxH1FCrpR/img_3426.jpeg) Here the end result of my #dandelion pancakes 🥞 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmVRhkiEDyJLGdHSfd5rAwC6YHscerEQ3os97eDGvAXU9P/img_3427.jpeg) Let me tell you, they were delicious 🤤 and I will make more soon as the garden is full of dandelions 🌼🌼🌼🌼 **Have you ever had dandelion?** …and here I say that’s all for today’s post my friends.
