Pancake Cupcakes

Rayhaan and Aaliyah baked the cutest cupcakes for breakfast. We made a pancake batter which we filled into cupcake cases, whipped cream frosting and decorated with mini pancakes, strawberries & sprinkles!

Bake them with your kids, it’s a really easy and fun recipe to try.

I shared the mini pancake recipe on my IGTV last month under “trending pancake cereal” and I have shared today’s cupcake recipe below, you can also find it on my website.

Chai Scones

Scones. You either love them or hate them, but eating hot and freshly baked scones for breakfast is just a different feeling. I enjoy baking scones and adding different flavours and textures to avoid it getting boring.

Today’s scones were served for breakfast with flavours of chai, they are delicious on its own but I served them with sweetened whipped cream, drizzle of milk chocolate, served with a side of blue berries and a cup of masala chai.

Pistachio & Rose Sugar Madeleine

Madeleine. That little delicate French butter tea cake known for it’s beautiful and distinct scalloped shell shape.

Flavours for Madeleines are endless from sweet to savoury, but we like ours with pistachio, a hint of cardamom and garnished with a delicate rose scented sugar.

It’s the prettiest tea time treat for Eid.
