Vietnamese Coffee Pancakes with Cinnamon Butter

Vietnamese Coffee Pancakes with Cinnamon Butter are a delightful and scrumptious meal to make for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! 

I know what we need. 

Well, I know what we need this Monday AM. 


How about a spring break trip to Cancun? Just kidding. For a split second going to Cancun sounds like a great idea. The sun. The beach. The free booze. BUT. Once I stop and replay all the sh$ that went down while on college spring break, I’m like, “How the hell did we survive? 

Fast forward twenty years and for spring break all I want to do is take some fresh turns down a snowy mountain. Make an ultimate apre ski charcuterie spread. Catch up with my friends and get a massage. BASIC AF. And that’s okay. If I still wanted to go to Cancun and enter a Senior Frogs wet t-shirt contest, I’d hope you would have an intervention.

Okay, where was I? Oh, yes. Accessing needs on this Monday AM. 
Here’s exactly what we need: 1) a jug of coffee, 2) a stack of delicious, fluffy Vietnamese Coffee Pancakes with Cinnamon Butter. I realize pancakes are generally reserved for weekend mornings, but sometimes a girl just needs a stack. Ya, feel me? 

Have you ever had Vietnamese Coffee? It’s pretty simple to make. Brew a cup of Vietnamese ground coffee (or you can use your favorite kind of coffee) and mix in sweetened condensed milk. Easy peasy. Serve it warm or chilled, but I definitely recommend it in a pancake form.

Take your standard pancake batter mix and add in brewed coffee and sweetened condensed milk. Super easy! Make extra because these bad boys will go fast!
