Poffertjes with Coconut Sugar Syrup
Poffertjes are small, fluffy pancakes from the Netherlands, typically served with powdered sugar and butter. Their light, airy texture and bite-sized shape make them a favorite at fairs and markets across the country. A delicious twist on the traditional recipe is to serve poffertjes with a rich coconut sugar syrup. Coconut sugar adds a deep caramel-like flavor that complements the buttery, fluffy texture of the poffertjes perfectly.
Ingredients:
For the Poffertjes:
– 200g all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp baking powder
– 1 tbsp sugar
– 1 egg
– 300ml warm milk
– A pinch of salt
– Butter, for cooking
For the Coconut Sugar Syrup:
– 100g coconut sugar
– 100ml water
– 1 tbsp butter
– 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
1. Making the Poffertjes Batter:
– In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
– In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and warm milk.
– Gradually add the milk mixture to the flour, stirring until smooth and free of lumps. Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes.
2. Cooking the Poffertjes:
– Heat a poffertjes pan or a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add a little butter.
– Pour a small amount of batter into each well of the poffertjes pan (or create small circles on a skillet).
– Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip the poffertjes with a skewer or fork. Cook the other side until golden brown.
3. Preparing the Coconut Sugar Syrup:
– In a small saucepan, combine the coconut sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves.
– Add the butter and vanilla extract, and let the syrup simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside to cool a bit.
4. Serving:
– Place a serving of warm poffertjes on a plate, drizzle with the coconut sugar syrup, and add a small pat of butter if desired. You can also sprinkle with a bit of powdered sugar for extra sweetness.
Why Coconut Sugar?
Using coconut sugar for the syrup not only adds a unique flavor but also makes the syrup slightly healthier than regular sugar syrups, as coconut sugar has a lower glycemic index and provides trace minerals.
Enjoy these delicious Dutch treats with a tropical twist! The combination of fluffy poffertjes and rich coconut sugar syrup creates a delightful balance that’s perfect for breakfast, dessert, or a sweet snack.
