Chocolate pancakes recipe

Step 1

In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder and pinch of salt. The salt will bring out the chocolate flavour in the cocoa powder.

Step 2

Gradually whisk in the eggs and the milk. Stir in the maple syrup.

Step 3

Mix until a thick, smooth batter forms.

Step 4

Heat a frying pan over a medium heat and brush with melted butter.

Step 5

Cook ¼ cup measures of this mixture in the pan. When bubbles form on the top, flip over to cook the other side.

Step 6

Keep in a warm place while you cook the rest of the batter. This recipe makes 16 pancakes.

Step 7

Serve with vanilla ice cream or chocolate sauce and fresh strawberries.
