Ingredients (7–8 pancakes):

  • Milk 400 g
  • Flour 350 g
  • Coffee 100 g
  • 3 eggs
  • A pinch of salt
  • Butter for greasing the pan
  •  

Preparation:

Prepare the dough.

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk and the cooled coffee. Then mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well combined. Gradually add the flour and mix until you have a thick, smooth batter with no lumps.

Let the dough rest.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the batter “rest” in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. During this time, the flour will fully absorb the liquid, and the pancakes will be softer and more elastic.

Make pancakes.

Heat a nonstick or pancake pan and grease it with a small amount of butter. Pour in one scoop of batter and spread it out by gently tilting the pan. Cook for about 1 minute, until the edges begin to pull away from the pan and small bubbles appear on the surface.

Turn it over and finish cooking.

Flip the crepe and cook the other side for another 30 seconds. Continue until all the batter is used up

Variations and Serving Suggestions

Thin coffee pancakes are a great base for various flavor combinations. Here are a few ideas to inspire you:

  • With mascarpone and cocoa cream-mix the mascarpone with a little sugar and cocoa powder to achieve a milder “tiramisu” effect.
  • With bananas and chocolate-arrange thinly sliced bananas on a plate and drizzle with melted chocolate.
  • With vanilla ice cream-a particularly delicious combination when the crepes are served warm.
  • With berry jam and whipped cream-a great choice for a lighter, fruitier version.

Which coffee should I choose?

To give your pancakes a distinct and rich coffee aroma, choose high-quality coffee from the ArabikaKafija.lv selection. Each coffee has its own unique flavor:

Kenya Arabica is refined and aromatic, with fruity and sweet notes. It's perfect if you're looking for a light, refreshing aftertaste.

Brasil Arabica is milder and smoother, with notes of chocolate and caramel. This coffee will give your pancakes a warm, comforting flavor.

Ginseng Coffee If you're looking for an energetic start to your day, this is the perfect choice.

Useful tips

  • If you want a stronger coffee flavor, increase the amount of coffee to 120 g and reduce the amount of milk by 20–30 g.
  • To ensure that thin pancakes are soft and chewy, don't overcook them; a quick fry on both sides is enough.
  • You can freeze the finished crepes. Just stack them, placing a piece of parchment paper between each one, and reheat them later in a pan or in the microwave.
