Welcome to Rain's Art and Dinner Date! The theme is Petals.
This is a 'fallen petals' piece I did way back in September of 2013 that I located in an old blog post!
For the Dinner Date I am showing some spelt flour pancakes I made. They are so light and fluffy, perfect with a little syrup.
Here is the spelt flour pack I bought along with the pancake recipe on the back. It made a lot more than 4 pancakes, maybe a dozen. Thanks to Ivy at The Happy Whisk for encouraging me to try spelt flour. She says there are white or brown spelt varieties. This is brown whole grain spelt.





I can't believe I'm your first comment!!! Wasn't sleepy so decided to blog a little. I adore your painting. The vase is so real, you can just feel the glass. Love it!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful painting.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is crazy! Just the other day I saw on a show called "Galileo" or "Adventure life", I can´t recall which one, how a lady opened a shop with such fluffy pancakes!!! I think it was in Japan even!
I have not tried spelt. I would love the whole wheat one. Thanks for the recipe. Lovely painting too.๐๐๐๐๐๐

Your fallen petals are lovely as is the bouquet and vase they fell from. I'm sorry ... Spelt flour? I am not familiar with it. Could you bring me up to speed? The pancakes do look good though and with syrup ... yummm! I think we have finally made it to Spring here ... hope you have too, it is really lovely out :)

Andrea spelt flour is an ancient grain that is higher in protein and fibre and has a nutty flavour. It has a more easily digestible gluten as well.
DeleteSuch beautiful art.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
The fallen petals do evoke a touch of sadness
ReplyDeleteI bet spelt flour pancakes taste great. And I like that vase of flowers a lot.
ReplyDeleteWell done on the vase.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on, and stay safe.

Fallen petals is lovely. I've wondered about spelt flower. I'll have to get some and try these pancakes. Thanks, my friend!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your fallen petal painting. I have never heard of spelt.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely piece of art, Christine!
ReplyDeleteIs Spelt flour supposed to be better than regular? I've never used it.
Suz spelt has health benefits for some. It is an ancient grain the gluten is better tolerated if you are sensitive to gluten
ReplyDeleteThank you!! Good to know.
