I went outside this morning and was greeted by a sweet smell that I traced to the pretty elderberry flowers in the corner of my yard. I know the birds are going to get most of the elderberries ( they usually do) but I remembered that you can make delish fritters ( pancakes ) using the flowers. So I picked some that were fully blossoming and then my husband was late coming home so they kind of lost their flat selves but I decided to make us a desert w them anyways and they were very good! Basically I just threw together some pancakes using some coconut flour and wheat flour... basically pancake batter, dipped the blossom ends in and there you have it. If I were doing it again I think I would strip off the flowers and throw them in the mix as we didn't eat the stems. Oh, sprinkle w confectioners sugar when hot.
