• Drop aprox. 1/4 cup of batter onto hot lightly gressed griddle cook aprox 2 minutes or until sides appere done and you see air bubbles on top then flip and cook on other side to a golden brown.
• You can also use raspberries, blueberries, your favorite fruit or whatever you want.
• Coulis aux Framboises Directions.
• This is a basic Coulis recipe that I like to use in place of maple syrup.
• Combine berries, sugar, and liqueur in a small non-reactive saucepan, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Let cook until syrupy and reduced by half, about 10 - 15 minutes.
• If you don't have an immersion blender (aka boat motor, stick blender) to puree in the saucepan you will have to transfer mixture to a blender or food processor, and puree until smooth.
• Strain through a fine mesh sieve, pushing on the mixture with a rubber spatula, and discard seeds.
• Drizzle on top of you buttered pancakes in place of syrup. If you have some left over, set aside to cool and refrigerate up to one week.
• This Coulis is also great over French Vanilla Ice Cream, Ice Box Cake, Chocolate Cake or many other dishes. Use your Imagination and Have Fun.
• Tips: * Granulated sugar can be used but I find it gives a grainer texture.You can make superfine sugar using your blender or food processor).
• * Most of the alcohol evaporates during the cooking process, but if you are concerned you can leave out the liquor and replace with a berry juice or just use maple syrup for the kids.
