"Ive been finding things in the Forest," said Tigger importantly. "I've found a pooh and a piglet and an eeyore, but I can't find any breakfast." -- The House at Pooh Corner.

That first morning in the forest, O, will tell you, Tigger tried honey, thistle, and finally settled on extract of malt being his favorite thing to eat. We'll spare you Tigger's experience and side with Pooh, who likes honey best.

We have been practically living in the 100 Acer Woods lately as we cannot wait to dive under the covers at night read A. A. Milne's classics. Here's a pancake tribute to one of our family's all-time favorite books and one of the sweetest friendship ever- Pooh & Piglet.

PoohanPiglet Pancakes with Honey-fruity syrup
adapted from "The Pooh Cook Book" by Virginia Ellison
serves 4

Ingredients
1+ c oat flour (we added extra flour because we like thick pancakes)
1 t baking soda 
1⁄2 t sea salt
1T local honey
1 c sour cream or milk or half of each
2 local eggs
2 T butter
1⁄2c wild blueberries

Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt.
Whisk honey, sour cream, milk, and eggs until smooth. Add the melted butter.
Whisk the wet and dry ingredients together until smooth.

Pour 1-2 tablespoons of the batter onto a hot greased griddle. Bubbles should appear in less than a minute. When the pancake bubbles all over, flip it over & brown the underside. Serve with extra blueberries and honey-fruity syrup.



Honey-fruity Syrup
1/2 c honey
1 banana
1/2 t cinnamon

Mash a banana and place in a small pot. Cover with honey. Sprinkle cinnamon. Heat on low for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
