Equipment

Moka pot
Small saucepan
Coffee grinder
Measuring spoons
Heat-safe cups

Ingredients

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 fresh sage leaves
30g medium-dark roast coffee beans, finely ground
2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch of ground allspice

Instructions

In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add sage leaves and cook until butter turns golden brown and smells nutty, about 3-4 minutes. Remove sage leaves and set aside.
Grind coffee beans to a fine consistency, suitable for Moka pot brewing.
Fill the bottom chamber of your Moka pot with hot water up to the valve.
Add ground coffee to the filter basket, leveling it without tamping.
Add spices to the ground coffee and gently stir to combine.
Assemble the Moka pot and place over medium heat.
Once coffee begins flowing, reduce heat to low.
Remove from heat when brewing is complete.
Divide coffee between two cups and add 1-2 tablespoons of brown butter to each.
Garnish with reserved crispy sage leaves if desired.

Pro Tips

Brown the butter slowly over medium heat for the best nutty flavor
Use fresh sage leaves - dried won't give the same aromatic result
Grind your coffee just before brewing for the freshest taste
Store any leftover brown butter in an airtight container in the fridge
