Description

Pancakes just got a new twist thanks to cocoa powder, coconut milk, and flax seed added to the batter. Serve with butter and syrup!

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup flax seeds
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 cups coconut milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon vegetable oil

Directions

1 Whisk flour, sugar, cocoa powder, flax seeds, salt, and baking powder together in a bowl. Stir coconut milk, egg, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and vanilla extract into flour mixture until batter is smooth.
2 Heat a skillet over medium heat; add 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle, creating 4-inch circles, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
