A plate full of fruity pancakes can be all you need to start your day on the right foot. Little things like that can lift your mood a lot, so cheer yourself up with a fruity and comforting breakfast. Pancakes are very quick and easy to make. They come in a million different versions and you can easily adjust the quantity whether you’re eating alone or have a crowd to feed. Kids love them—it’s not complicated to sneak in some healthy ingredients they typically won’t eat.

The recipe we’re sharing today comes from Lil Luna. She makes the regular pancake batter and adds the grated apple at the end. She cooks them on medium heat in a greased pan so they don’t stick. Her best flipping tip is to find the right temperature so take your time trying it out. Serve your pancakes warm with a piece of butter, some syrup, and your favorite toppings!

Cinnamon

The most recognizable taste in pumpkin pie spice is cinnamon—a spicy, sweet, and warm spice, which gives the backbone to the rest of the spice flavors that are found within the mix, along with helping out its aroma.

Nutmeg

One of the main sources of the aroma in pumpkin pie is nutmeg. Containing a smell that many describe as resembling that of a forest, its slightly sweet flavor also enhances the dessert.

Ginger

Most people either love ginger or hate it, but its presence in pumpkin pie is complementary and you might not even notice it. The sharp, peppery taste and smell of this spice is hardly noticeable—unless you really pay attention—but in its small dose does wonders.

Cloves

Finally, cloves are the last common spice found in pumpkin pie. This dried-out tree bud is ground into the mix in small quantities and provides a hint of a pungent sweetness and warmth that is unmistakable.

Ingredients:

For this cinnamon ice cream, you need 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, 3 cups heavy whipping cream, 4 large egg yolks, 1 cup low-fat milk, 3/4 cup granulated white sugar, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon.

Instructions:

This recipe is meant for 8 servings. The first step is to get a saucepan and mix the vanilla, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and cream in it. Turn the heat to medium-low and wait until the whole mixture is melted. You can now set the saucepan to the side.

Get a bowl and whisk the egg yolks in it. When you are done, you can start including one cup of the milk mixture, while also stirring at the same time. The goal is to warm up the eggs, then add them to the got mix in the saucepan. Put it back on the stove, and cook it for 10 to 15 minutes. It should not boil, and you should be mixing it all the time. Take it off the heat and leave it to cool down. Once it’s cold you can place it in the freezer. Wait overnight before you serve the cinnamon ice cream.
