Happy Shrove Tuesday (also known as Mardi Gras, 🥞Pancake Tuesday or Pancake Day)!
🪓Lumberjacks, loggers and miners in North America all survived 19th century camps by filling up on pancakes, as they were a good source of carbs and proteins. Thus the famous "Lumberjack Breakfast", which consisted of eggs🥚, bacon🥓 and a huge stack of pancakes🥞
In the old days, Shrove Tuesday or Pancake Day was the last opportunity to use up eggs and fats before embarking on the Lenten fast and pancakes are the perfect way of using up these ingredients.
Today, we'll have yummy pancakes any day! 🥞
