Puffed Pear Pancake, My French Farmhouse Window



Puffed Pear Pancake-
With some wonderful local pears, and my own fresh eggs, I decided to try this Puffed Pear Pancake. Pretty good, quick and easy! I doubled the fruit. I think it would have been better with almond extract (I was out) so I used vanilla. Texture was soft and moist. A keeper with some homemade creme fraiche on top! Will try with some of my frozen nectarines next time!

My French Farmhouse Window-

With all my herbs cut before the 20's hitting, and hanging in my window, it reminded me of a French farmhouse window! The smell is heavenly- oregano, thyme and rosemary. My fresh Italian Parsley cut in some water as well.

Last of my flowers, sigh... Snow and rain tonite in the forecast...

I LOVE your window with the herbs hanging!! :)
I made that Puffed Pear Pancake last Sunday using some of our pears and farm fresh eggs. It was even good as leftovers cold. I doubled the fruit too.

How lovely that window looks! And how wonderful it must smell in your kitchen - between the pear pancake and those herbs!
