Candlemas means pancakes… And who says pancakes says Brittany<\/strong>. The star meal and a must when you come to Southern Brittany. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you come to the Kerabus campsite<\/strong> in Carnac in the Morbihan, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to cr\u00eaperies<\/a><\/strong>, where you can enjoy delicious galettes and cr\u00eapes! The cakes<\/strong> are made with buckwheat flour, water and salt and are only eaten salted. Unlike the cr\u00eape, which is only eaten with sugar. (see recipe below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Kerabus campsite opens its doors on April 1st, so you can book your meal in a cr\u00eaperie or try to make it yourself in your mobile home, motor home, caravan…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the summer, a “Galettes” foodtruck comes once a week to offer its services!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

A little history first, why do we celebrate Candlemas?<\/h4>\n\n

Candlemas or the festival of candles is celebrated 40 days after Christmas and according to Christian tradition it refers to the distribution of pancakes to pilgrims arriving in Rome or according to a pagan legend, the pancake also symbolizes the sun and the return of spring.<\/p>\n\n

So now that we know the story, go ahead and make your own pancakes, I give you my recipe (sorry, it’s not my grandmother’s!): <\/p>\n\n
