Originally was waffle, but I was in the mood of pancake so I made the recipe into pancakes instead. And no regret, it still yielded soft and fluffy ones :)

Btw, you notice the orange I used was rather darker in color. I used cara cara oranges from US, easily found nowadays in supermarkets. This is the first time I tried this kind of oranges, and I was amazed at the first cut to find the flesh was rather reddish, very similar to grapefruit, darker in color, in fact
I googled for some info about this orange and true enough, cara cara orange is a red flesh orange. Taste wise, it's really juicy and sweet. Give it a try while it's still in season :)

  4. Hi Alice,

    Based on my recent Singapore trip, I realise that eating cooked breakfast seems to be the latest in-thing in Singapore. Your MS pancakes with orange syrup looks heavenly.
