Belgian Beer Pancakes

4 servings

20 minutes

Belgian beer pancakes are an amazing combination of traditional baking and rich beer flavor. This recipe dates back to ancient Belgian culinary traditions, where brewing is closely linked to gastronomy. Light and airy due to the yeast and beer, they have a subtle, slightly caramel taste with a hoppy note. Served with aromatic lingonberry sauce and delicate Chantilly cream, they offer a true gastronomic delight. These pancakes make an excellent choice for a cozy breakfast or an original dessert, perfectly paired with a cup of strong coffee or even a glass of light Belgian ale.
