Shrove Tuesday is of course a time when we can indulge in some delicious pancakes, but we've found the perfect way to liven things up this year and incorporate coffee into your pancakes. More specifically with a fantastic new coffee pancakes recipe!
The Ingredients
We’ve found an excellent recipe from Aldi that serves up to ten people (or one VERY hungry person):
150g plain flour
120g greek yogurt
2 tsp of instant coffee 2 large eggs
1 tsp baking powder A pinch of salt
50ml milk
25ml vegetable oil 50g caster sugar
You will also need to have your equipment ready:
Two mixing bowls
A whisk
A wooden spoon
A teaspoon
A frying pan
The Method
Put the flour, sugar, baking powder, coffee and salt in one bowl and begin whisking. Then put the yogurt, eggs, milk and oil together in another bowl and mix them together.
Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, add the yogurt mixture, and mix into a smooth batter.
Heat some oil in a frying pan and add 4 tablespoons of the batter. Smooth into a circle and cook for a minute on each side.
Now that you’ve made your first successful pancake you can transfer it to an oven to keep it warm while you cook the rest... or tuck in!
