Apple & Buttermilk Pancakes

If breakfast, snack or dinner, delicious pancakes with a glass of milk are always a great sweet but nutritious treat! Bump is quite big now and with only two weeks to go I'll have to try relax a bit and let grandma take care of the cooking. So watch the space for grannies favourites. I'm looking forward to it!
