Lucid Cafe Bali – Serving Up Wisdom, One Culinary Tip at a Time!
If there’s one dessert that perfectly captures the spirit of Lucid Cafe Bali, it’s our Pannekoek — that fluffy-yet-crispy, melt-in-your-mouth treat that never fails to bring smiles to the table. Often ordered for birthdays, small celebrations, or simply a sweet moment of pause, it’s become a little symbol of joy at Lucid — one forkful at a time.
But here’s the fun part: you don’t have to be a pro chef to make your own Pannekoek at home. With a few simple ingredients, a little patience, and a pinch of Lucid’s magic (quite literally), you can recreate the essence of our café favorite in your own kitchen.
🍳 Step 1: The Batter — Where the Magic Begins
A good Pannekoek starts simple:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tbsp sugar
- A pinch of salt — the heart of Lucid’s secret balance
Mix everything gently until smooth. The key is not to over-whisk — too much air makes the texture tough, while a light mix keeps it tender and airy.
Now, here’s the Lucid twist: that tiny pinch of salt isn’t just seasoning — it’s a flavor bridge. It sharpens the sweetness, brings out the creamy notes of the butter, and gives your batter the kind of quiet depth that makes people say, “What’s your secret?”
🧈 Step 2: The Pan Game — Getting That Golden Edge
Heat your pan (non-stick works best) on medium-low and brush it lightly with butter. Pour a thin layer of batter and let it spread naturally — not too thick like pancakes, but not paper-thin like crêpes.
The trick is in patience. Don’t flip too early. Wait until the edges turn golden and slightly crisp — that’s your cue. Flip, let it puff a little, and slide it onto a plate.
Repeat until your kitchen smells like a cozy Sunday morning at Lucid.
🍌🍓🍫 Step 3: The Lucid Finishing Touches
Now comes the fun part — toppings! At Lucid, our Pannekoek comes in three signature variants, each one loved for a reason:
- Banana Choco Crunch — layered with sliced banana, dark chocolate drizzle, and crunchy bits for texture.
- Mixed Berry Cream Cheese — a refreshing balance of strawberries, blueberries, and smooth cream cheese.
- Banana Cinnamon & Caramel — comfort on a plate with warm caramel drizzle and a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar.
At home, you can go creative — honey and nuts, Nutella and strawberries, or even a simple dusting of powdered sugar and butter. What matters most is that it’s made with joy.
🧂 Step 4: That Pinch of Lucid
Right before serving, take a moment to breathe in the aroma — the buttery crisp, the soft warmth, the hint of sweetness. That’s what we call Lucid simplicity: the art of turning small things into special moments.
Because sometimes, the secret to making something taste extraordinary isn’t in complex recipes — it’s in the heart you pour into it… and yes, that tiny pinch of salt.
