Vegan gingerbread crumble pancakes and more Christmas inspired recipes
I just searched my blog for Christmas recipes and found two!! How can that be!? I’m a huge Christmas food lover and I could honestly eat gingerbread spiced food all through the year, but somehow it just tastes best during this festive time of year.
So the two recipes I found were this giant Xmas cookie (which I’m remaking and reshooting today to share with you later) and these easy-to-make chocolate ice cream bites. I’m going to make much more gingerbread spiced recipes for you this December!
Secret to making delicious gingerbread pancakes
So how to make these delicious pancakes? You make a pancake batter and then you just crumble a few gingerbread cookies into the pancake batter, simple as that! This is my way of making pancakes taste a little more festive and yummier.
The basic pancake batter recipe (without cookies) is from my vegan sweet treats book (only in Finnish at the moment, sorry!), and this is basically the only one I use these days, because I just love the simplicity of the recipe (Blend, cook, enjoy) and of course the flavor.
If you try these or any of my recipes, would really love to see them! If you’re posting them on Instagram or your Instagram Stories, please tag me @myberryforest & use the hashtag #myberryforestrecipes so I can see your lovely creations and share them on my IG Stories ♥
Much LOVE, hugs and gingerbread spiced dreams from the forest!

The drink in the photo is my gingerbread latte: just mix ½ coffee and ½ plant-based milk (I use Barista oat drink Kaslink AITO). Swirl in about ¼ tsp of gingerbread spice. Top with cream and sprinkle more spice on top!
