Ingredients

Scale

 

  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup (30g) cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter (plus more for cooking)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup (45g) chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Batter:
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
    • In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Combine Ingredients:
    • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
    • Fold in the chocolate chips if using.
  • Cook the Pancakes:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter.
    • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
    • Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until cooked through.
  • Serve:
    • Stack the pancakes on a plate and top with whipped cream, syrup, or extra chocolate chips if desired. Enjoy while warm!

Notes

  • For an extra chocolatey taste, drizzle with chocolate sauce before serving.
  • These pancakes can be kept warm in a low oven (about 200°F/90°C) until ready to serve.
