Thai TEA Pancakes

Simple pancakes are dull; make Thai Tea Pancakes instead. I grew up drinking Thai tea and loved the idea of making it into so many kinds of desserts. Let’s start with pancakes! The base is a buttermilk pancake mixed with some Thai tea to give it a very orange and distinct look. Here is how to make it.

STEP 1: THE BATTER- MIX ALL DRY INGREDIENTS BEFORE POURING WET INGREDIENTS!

1. 1 ½ Cups of Buttermilk

2. ½ cup of Thai Tea (do not use the Thai tea with cream already!!!)

3. 1 tsp salt

4. 2 tsp baking powder

5. 1 tsp baking soda

6. 2 tbsp sugar

7. 2 eggs

8. 2 tbsp melted butter

   Step 2: Condensed Milk Syrup

1. Grab a small sauce pot

2. Turn on low heat

3. Add ½ cup heavy whipping cream

4. Half a can of condensed milk 

5. Stir until you get a syrupy texture

Step 3:Pancakes

1. Grab a nonstick pan

2. Medium to low heat

3. Let the pan heat up before you laddle in the batter

4. slice of butter on the pan

5. Ladle in the batter

6. When bubbles start forming on top, flip

You can plate the pancakes however you like. I put strawberries and a sprig of mint on top for presesnation. The pancakes would go with any fruit or other toppings! Enjoy.
