I also then let it keep on cooking until it got very gel-ly but didn\u2019t strain out the skins), and this combination tasted very, very good.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also a thing about raisins but I skipped that because I don\u2019t like raisins.\u00a0 In a restaurant, you can order it with our without raisins.<\/p>\n<p>This is admittedly not a super-nutritious meal, though it also depends, I suppose, how much sugar you add to it.\u00a0 (I was also thinking of making a fritatta alongside it for some protein but then decided that was too much effort.)\u00a0 It also has the advantage, relative to the German pancakes (which are crepes but slightly thicker) that the kids also like to ask for, that one recipe\u2019s worth makes four batches so it goes faster than making one crepe\/pancake after the next.<\/p>\n<p>And with that, and one more batch of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/janetheactuary\/2017\/08\/pumpkin-rolls-part-ii.html\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\">pumpkin rolls<\/a>, the Thanksgiving cooking\/baking\/overeating is done, and the pre-Christmas diet begins.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The above is not my photo;
