What do you need?

  • 2 eggs
  • 45gr brown sugar

How to make spiced pancakes with Santuario?

Step 1: Mix the eggs and sugar in a bowl. Add Yoghurt, coffee and sunflower oil and blend everything together.

Step 2: Add the flour, baking powder, spices and salt and mix everything together with a spatula. The batter doesn’t have to be fantastically smooth.

Step 3: Heat a flat frying pan. Place two table spoons of batter in the pan and bake the pancakes until air bubbles are visible on the top of the pancake (usually visible in about a minute). Turn the pancake carefully and bake for another minute. Quick tip: In a large frying pan, multiple pancakes can be baked at once. Please note that the pancakes can get to dark very easily. This is due to the added sugar, which burns easily. Also, the added coffee gives the pancakes a darker color than your average pancakes. If you are using a frying pan with a good non-stick coating, then extra sunflower oil is needed as there is already oil in the batter.

Step 4: Repeat previous steps until the desired number of pancakes is created. Place the finished pancakes on a plate in the oven to keep them warm.

Step 5: For the finishing touch, add maple syrup on top before serving.

Enjoy!
