Chocolate Pancakes
Chocolate Pancakes just might be the ultimate breakfast comfort food. Rich, fluffy pancakes, packed full of chocolate flavor, make this simple recipe a hit.
Ingredients
- 1⅓ cup all-purpose flour
- 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tsp baking powder
- ¼ cup sugar
- ¼ tsp salt
- 3 tbsp butter (melted)
- 3/4 cups buttermilk (if needed you can replace with milk)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- ½ cup chocolate chips (you can leave these out, or use twice as much, your choice!)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl mix together all dry ingredients. Then add wet ingredients and stir just until combined. The batter is thick and lumpy. Fold in chocolate chips. Let batter sit for 3-5 minutes.
- Heat griddle over medium heat and grease lightly with butter or oil.
- Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of pancake batter into the griddle. Mixture may be thick, and if so use spoon to help spread the batter out a bit in the pan. Cook until pancakes have bubbles on the top, then flip and cook an additional 30-60 seconds. Repeat with the remaining pancake batter.
- Serve immediately, topped with powdered sugar, chocolate sauce, butter, syrup or fresh fruit.
Notes
* A triggered ice cream scoop is perfect for scooping your batter.
*Whole wheat pastry flour can be substituted for the all-purpose flour.
