Coffee Pancakes
"I admit I'm a serious coffee addict. It's a welcome curse that Siggi has enabled ea dy since learning just how much it would improve our life together. I of course reward him w/recipes worthy of his service to the coffee cause. Found at an Australian cooking site, this recipe will soon be 1 of his rewards. I even got the help I needed to convert its metric-to-imperial measurements from my friend (Peggy) who lives in Canberra, Australia. (Pls see NOTE RE YIELD after the Prep Steps) ENJOY!"

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Mix the instant coffee crystals w/2 tbsp boiling water & set aside to cool.
Step 2
Sift the flour, baking powder & baking soda into a bowl. Add the sugar & a pinch of salt.
Step 3
In separate bowl, use a wooden spoon to beat the egg, yogurt, milk, melted butter & coffee mixture until combined. Add to dry ingredients & stir gently to combine.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet over med heat & brush it w/some of the extra melted butter. Working in batches, add 1 tbsp of batter to the pan for ea pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then turn & cook for a further 1 min or until golden. Cover & keep warm while you repeat w/the remaining batter, brushing the pan w/extra butter as needed.
Step 5
Serve the pancakes in stacks w/fruit of choice & extra yogurt. Lightly dust w/powdered sugar as desired.
Step 6
NOTE RE YIELD: The recipe said "Makes 10". I assumed this to be the # of servings since only 1 tbsp batter was used per pancake. The recipe pic showed a plated serving of 2 lrg pancakes topped w/fruit, lightly dusted w/powdered sugar & a dollop of yogurt on-the-side. So it follows the net yield should be 20 pancakes if my assumptions are correct, but I'm a little uneasy about my logic.
