Fluffy, golden pancakes topped with a cloud of whipped, creamy Dalgona coffee foam — the perfect sweet and caffeinated breakfast treat that’s as fun to make as it is to eat.

Ingredients:

For the pancakes:

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

• 2 tbsp sugar

• 1 tbsp baking powder

• ¼ tsp salt

• 1 egg

• 3 tbsp melted butter or vegetable oil

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Dalgona coffee foam:

Instructions:

1. Make the pancakes:

• In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

• In another bowl, whisk milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.

• Combine wet and dry ingredients gently until just mixed (some lumps are okay).

• Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, grease lightly.

• Pour batter (about ¼ cup per pancake) and cook until bubbles form on top, then flip and cook until golden. Repeat.

1. Whip the Dalgona coffee:

• In a bowl, combine instant coffee, sugar, and hot water.

• Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip vigorously for 3-5 minutes until light, fluffy, and creamy.

• Optional: drizzle with maple syrup or sprinkle cocoa powder.
