I have a really good ‘Carrot Cake’ recipe. My family members started calling it Hiroko’s Legendary Carrot Cake, so I have named it ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’. Key ingredients include Pineapple and Sultanas. I added those to these pancakes. These pancakes are not very sweet, but they taste lovely. One day this recipe might be called ‘My Legendary Carrot Pancakes’.

Steps

1

Place coarsely grated Carrots in a mixing bowl, add Pineapple and Sultanas, and all the Batter ingredients, and mix to combine. The mixture should be thick. If too thick to form pancakes, add some Juice from Pineapple OR Water.
2

Heat a small amount of Oil in a frying pan, non-stick preferred, over LOW heat, form pancakes, cover with a lid, and cook for 3 minutes OR until nicely browned. Then flip over, cover with a lid, and cook the other side for 3 minutes.

I served with Sour Cream, Roasted Walnuts and Honey.
