It was delightfully autumningly raining yesterday afternoon, and I was delightfully exploring many a blog in my (yes I will admit it) fluffy leopard print dressing gown when I came across this recipe for... wait for it...apple cider doughnut pancakes! Oh my lord!
It was enough to get me out of my dressing gown, into my car for the first time in a few weeks, and down to the shops to grab some supplies. That was it! I had Sunday morning all planned. Before I could think about the pancakes it struck me that this would be the ideal time to try an apple jam I've been thinking of creating for a while...yes i'm a little jam obsessed at the moment! I thought (and rightly so) that this would be the perfect accompaniment for these incredible sounding treats! This was all my favourite things, fruit, spices, booze, baking, woody herbs, rum, sugary goodness. So I got straight into creating this jam, ready for breakfast in the morning. The result...Yum!
