Pancakes

• 100 g all-purpose flour

• 4 g (1 tsp) baking powder

• 1 g (¼ tsp) baking soda

• 20 g (1 ½ tbsp) sugar

• 1 egg

• 80 g Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

• 1 tsp instant coffee (adjust strength to taste)

• 15 g (1 tbsp) vegetable oil

• 3 tbsp milk

Creamy Coffee Topping (Coffee Cream)

• 1 dl heavy cream
• 1 tbsp sugar
• ½–1 tsp instant coffee
• ½ tsp vanilla extract

Pancakes

Stir the instant coffee into the yogurt. Let it sit for 1 minute so the coffee granules dissolve.

Add the egg, oil, and milk to the yogurt, and whisk until smooth.

In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined.

Cook the pancakes over medium heat with a lid, about 2-3 minutes per side, until golden and fluffy.

Serve with your desired topping.

Creamy Coffee Topping (Coffee Cream)

1. Mix the instant coffee and sugar into the cream.

2. Whip everything together until soft peaks form.

3. Spoon a generous dollop on top of the pancakes.

Feel free to serve the pancakes with an extra splash of coffee, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or a bit of chocolate on top.

Tip: Adjust the amount of instant coffee according to how strong you want the coffee flavor. If you want them to be extra dessert-like, a bit of grated chocolate or chocolate sauce on top is absolutely delightful!

Enjoy delicious, fluffy coffee pancakes.
