| Fathers Day Card |
This was a little last minute plan though, so I scavenged through my refrigerator the night before, and tried to see what I could cook up for him. I found apples were my only star ingredient for the day, so I thought of making him these Apple Date-nut pancakes. I still had a stash of dates, lying around since ramzan, so I thought of adding in nuts, and voila, those were my key players for the fancy Fathers Day Brunch.
This is yet another quick and simple recipe from my kitchen. It went well with Daddy dearest, and I'm sure you'll will love it too.

| Apple Date Nut Pancakes |
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup grated red apples (I grated them with skin on, this is a personal preference)
- 5 dates, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup Pecans, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 egg
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
- 1 tsp sugar
- a pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- a pinch of cinnamon powder (optional)
- Olive Oil Spray, for greasing the pan
- Maple Syrup
Directions:
- Add all the dry ingredients to a mixing bowl. Add the egg, buttermilk and whisk into the dry mix.
- Now add the remaining ingredients whisk it until a smooth consistency is formed. If the batter feels too dry, slowly add in a little water and keep mixing until the batter is runny for pancakes
- Now heat a nonstick pan, grease the pan with some spray. Take 2 tbsp of batter to make the pancakes.
- Once bubbles start forming on the top layer(about 2 mins), carefully flip them over and cook for another couple of mins.
- Once done, I sprinkled them with some pistachio & almond powder, chopped dates and a few slices of apples. And served them with maple syrup.
