Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 ½ teaspoon baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1 ⅓ cups milk or sub with dairy-free milk of choice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon white granulated sugar or sub with maple syrup or honey
- 2 bags earl grey tea or sub with 2 teaspoon of loose leaf tea
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoon vegetable oil or any neutral oil
Optional Icing:
- 13.5 fl oz coconut milk full fat canned kind (refrigerated the night before)
- 1.5 tablespoon icing sugar
- 1-2 drops Blue Food coloring
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients.
- In a small pot set on high heat, add milk and tea leaves. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer on low-medium heat until the milk is brown. Run the liquid through a strainer to remove the leaves. Let this cool.
- In a separate large bowl, mix wet ingredients. Then pour wet ingredient into dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not over mix.
- Lightly grease a large pan with vegetable oil and paper towels and bring to medium heat.
- Pour ⅓ cup of pancake batter. Fry on each side until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side or flip until you see many bubbles form all over the pancake. You can serve these with maple syrup or try my coconut icing below.
Cup of Yum
Optional Icing:
- The night before, refrigerate whole fat canned coconut milk at the back of the fridge so it's extra cold.
- Open the canned coconut milk. Scoop ½ cup of the white solidified part of the coconut milk (do not use the liquids). This is your coconut cream.
- In a large bowl, add coconut cream, icing sugar and blue food coloring. Beat everything together with an electric hand mixer until it's whipped. Serve with pancakes.
