Cinnamon rolls

Kanēļmaizītes

In Latvia cinnamon rolls is a very popular treat for breakfast and a great snack to accompany coffee or tea in a cold winter afternoon. My grandmother used to make them quite often and I loved them. They are soft and with light caramel on top. Make sure you eat them freshly baked, that’s when they taste best. Enjoy!

Yogurt pancakes

Soft and light pancakes

When I was small, my grandma prepared pancakes from curdled milk and they were very tasty. So, having these memories in mind, I’ve replaced curdled milk with natural yogurt. The pancakes turn out very soft and almost melt in your mouth. I hope that you will try them!
