The Best Pancakes Ever Start with a Spoon of Coffee: Why a Common Drink is the Perfect Breakfast Secret
After this recipe, you’ll likely never go back to ordinary pancakes.
It’s no secret that pancakes have been breakfast classic for quite some time, though many might argue that making those constantly can become a little bit annoying.
Well, you might change your mind after giving a try to these coffee and cocoa pancakes that taste like heaven — and way better than the original ones. The simplest ingredients are required, so check whether you already have them in your kitchen.
Here’s what you need: 250 ml of yogurt, 1 egg, 2–3 tbsp of sugar, 1 tsp of instant coffee, 1 tbsp of cocoa, 180–220 g of flour, ½ tsp of baking soda, a pinch of salt, vegetable oil for frying.
Add coffee and cocoa to the yogurt, stirring well to remove any lumps. Beat in the egg, add the sugar and a pinch of salt, and mix until smooth.
Then add the baking soda and gradually stir in the flour — the batter should be thick but soft, like sour cream. Let it stand for 5–7 minutes.
Heat a skillet with a little oil and spoon the pancakes into it. Cook over medium heat until golden brown on both sides. Serve immediately — these are especially tender and fragrant when warm.
