INGREDIENTS

for 16 pancakes: Type 00 flour 1 ¼ cup (155 g); Milk 0.7 cup (155 g); Eggs 2 - medium; Sugar 0.3 cup (60 g); Instant coffee 5 tsp (10 g); Baking powder 1 ¾ tsp (8 g); Vegetable oil 1 ½ tbsp (20 g) - for greasing; Fine salt 1 pinch

Preparation

How to prepare Coffee pancakes

To prepare the coffee pancakes, first separate the egg yolk from the white 1 and set aside the latter. Add the sugar 2 to the yolk, a pinch of salt 3, and mix with a whisk.

Also add the milk 4 and seed oil 5, then mix again. Add the instant coffee 6 and stir to dissolve it evenly.

At this point, add the sifted flour 7 and baking powder 8 and mix until you get a smooth, lump-free batter. Set aside and whip the egg white with electric beaters in a clean bowl 9.

Once whipped to stiff peaks 10, incorporate it into the coffee mixture 11, gently folding from bottom to top to avoid deflating it 12.

Grease a non-stick pan with seed oil 13, drop spoonfuls of batter into the pan 14, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles appear on the surface 15.

Flip the pancakes and finish cooking on the other side 16. Transfer them to a serving plate and dust with powdered sugar 17. For the accompanying sauce: chop the dark chocolate with a knife 18 and heat the cream in a saucepan.

Pour the chocolate into the hot cream 19 and stir to melt it 20 until you obtain a smooth sauce 21.

Stack the pancakes 22 and let the chocolate drip over the surface 23. Your coffee pancakes are ready to be enjoyed 24!

Storage

Coffee pancakes are perfect freshly made, but you can store them in the refrigerator in a closed container for up to 2 days. Before consuming, you can quickly reheat them in a pan or microwave.
