Ingredients 10
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- ¼ cup Dutch process cocoa powder (or standard cocoa powder; see Notes)
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup milk of choice
- ¼ cup melted unsalted butter, melted coconut oil or neutral oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Method 5
- 01
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- 02
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, then whisk in the milk, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla extract.
- 03
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until a smooth batter forms. (It will thicken after it sits 1 to 2 minutes.)
- 04
Lightly butter a skillet or griddle and wipe off extra grease with a paper towel. Heat the skillet to medium low heat. Pour the batter into small circles (about ¼ cup). Cook the pancakes until the bubbles pop on the top and the bottoms are golden. Then flip them and cook until cooked through.
- 05
Place the cooked pancakes under an inverted bowl to keep them warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to maintain an even temperature. Serve immediately with maple syrup and if desired, top with fresh strawberries or raspberries, homemade whipped cream , or additional chocolate chips.
