Equal Parts x La Colombe: Mocha Latte Pancakes

Maintaining a proper health kick is a no-brainer New Year’s resolution. And while we are big proponents of simple, clean cooking in January and beyond, we also believe that there’s nothing wrong with a little indulgence every once and a while. Especially when it comes to cooking for a crowd.

Here’s an idea for your next brunch spread: a pancake recipe remix that plays with coffee as a key ingredient. Developed with our friends at La Colombe, this Mocha Latte Pancake recipe adds a dash of creativity (and caffeination) to a breakfast classic. And it’s deceptively easy to pull-off.

Makes: 6-7 Pancakes

Prep & Cook Time: 30 Minutes

You'll Need:

Pancakes

• 1 cup AP flour
• 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• Pinch of salt
• 1/4 cup - 1/2 chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup La Colombe Coffee Cold Brew Brazilian
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  
  

Latte Whipped Cream Topping:

• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 2 tbsp. La Colombe Triple Shot Draft Latte (or Cold Brew Brazilian)
• 1 tsp. sugar
  
  

Coffee Maple Syrup

1. 1/4 cup maple syrup
2. 1/4 cup La Colombe Cold Brew Brazilian
   
   

Method: Pancakes

1. Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, sugar and salt in your medium sized Equal Parts Prep Bowl and mix together until combined.
2. In a separate Prep Bowl, whisk together the egg, milk and coffee. Then whisk in the melter butter to combine.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and, with your Equal Parts Spatula, gently stir to combine. (Don’t over-stir - it’s okay if there are a few lumps!) Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes.
4. Add the chocolate chips, gently stirring a couple of times to combine.
5. Heat your Big Pan over medium-high heat. Brush with a little butter or oil if you like, and drop the batter into the pan using your 1/4 Measuring Spoon.
6. Flip pancake when it begins to bubble or bottom is golden brown.
7. Serve with coffee maple syrup and/or latte whipped cream.
   
   

Method: Toppings

1. Latte Whipped Cream: Using a standing mixer with a whisk attachment, a hand mixing, or your Equal Parts Whisk and Prep Bowls, combine the cream and coffee. Whip until thick. Add sugar and continue to whip to combine.
2. Coffee Maple Syrup: Stir to combine. You can adjust the amounts, depending on how strong you prefer your coffee flavor. There’s no harm in a quick taste test.
