BOBA PANCAKES WITH MILK TEA CREAM RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Infuse the milk tea cream: Add heavy cream and black tea bag to a small saucepan. Heat over low heat until the cream just barely begins to simmer, about 5 minutes. Transfer the infused cream and tea bag to a medium heatproof bowl, let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
• Make the boba with brown sugar syrup: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Shake off any excess flour from the boba pearls, then add to the boiling water. Stir to separate the pearls, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes, until cooked through. Drain the boba and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Transfer to a medium heatproof bowl.
• Meanwhile, make the brown sugar syrup: Add the muscovado sugar and water to a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves and the syrup thickens slightly, 5-7 minutes. Pour the syrup over the boba and stir to coat. Let sit for about 1 hour.
• Make the pancakes: Add the milk, 4 tablespoons of butter, and the black tea bags to a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Do not let it come to a boil. Remove the pot from the heat and remove the tea bags, gently squeezing out any excess liquid. Transfer the tea milk to a medium heat-proof bowl and let cool to room temperature.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
• In a medium bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the cooled tea milk, vanilla, and egg yolk.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently fold with a rubber spatula until just combined. Add the egg white and fold until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay. Let the batter rest at room temperature for 15-30 minutes, until thickened.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Once the butter begins to bubble, add about ¼ cup of the batter to the pan. Cook for about 4 minutes, until bubbles start to appear on the surface. Flip the pancake over and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan as needed. You should have about 8 pancakes.
• Make milk tea cream: Remove the tea bag from the chilled infused cream. Pour ½ cup of the cream into a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Add the mascarpone and powdered sugar. Whip on medium speed until the mixture just barely starts to thicken, about 1 minute. It should still be a little runny.
• When ready to serve, set 1 pancake on a plate and top with about 1 tablespoon of the boba pearls and syrup. Repeat to stack 3 more pancakes on top. Pour half of the milk tea cream over the top and garnish with 2 tablespoons of boba pearls. Repeat to make a second serving.
• Enjoy!
