<\/p>\nHappy first day of Vegan Mofo!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I wanted to start things off with one of my favourite childhood memories.When I was little one of my fondest morning memories is when my mom would make nale\u015bniki (Na-leh-shniki.) Watching her make them always seemed so magical because what was once a liquid, seemed to defy gravity – clinging to the pan, changing colour, and turning into something delicious. I would sit at the kitchen table, we would listen to the CBC, we would talk, all while she made breakfast.<\/p>\n
There would be two typical fillings, a sweetened cheese one made with quark or some kind of stewed fruit or jam. My favourite of course, would be one with fruit, so that’s what I made this morning, finally, for my own family. \u00a0When my mom made it, it was topped off with a vanilla sugar thick cream – this morning I made a quick cream with maple syrup, coconut yogurt, and some vanilla bean.<\/p>\n
Before I went vegan, she would use a piece of bacon to grease the pan, \u00a0but eventually, once I went vegan she would still make ones for me with oil, filled with fruit, and dusted with icing sugar. Lucky me!<\/p>\n
Smacznego! (which means bon appetit! or enjoy your meal!)<\/p>\n
Makes 8 nale\u015bniki<\/p>\n

Ingredients\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Pre-heat a large pan on medium heat.<\/p>\n Mix all ingredients together in a blender – and blend for 30 seconds on high – and then it’s showtime.<\/p>\n Measure out 1\/3 cup of your batter, pick up your pan with one hand, and get ready to pour and rotate as quickly as you can. \u00a0I used a 1\/3 cup measure to pour batter onto the pan – it will be ready to flip after about a minute. Batter will curl at the edges and look slightly dry.<\/p>\n Flip it, and after another minute remove from pan and place on a plate. Cover plate with another plate and repeat until you have no batter left – should make approximately 8 pan sized\u00a0nale\u015bnik.<\/p>\n Now the filling, so, honestly, I wanted to make a sweet cheese filling with some silken tofu – but the one I bought yesterday looked like it had been frozen, which wouldn’t have had the texture I was looking for, so I shifted gears and used a jar of plum jam my mom had sent me a few months ago. It was perfect, but any stewed fruit or jarred jam will do – apple, plum, apricot, pick your favourite!<\/p>\n Please join me for more Polish Vegan Recipes throughout the month of October!
