Brownie Batter Pancakes
Happy Friday! It’s nearly the weekend, just hang in there!!
The great thing about reading food blogs is they provide and inspire you with ideas you never would have thought of. In fact, the internet in general is amazeballs for that. So when I saw Marta’s recipe for brownie batter pancakes, my heart stopped… it was love at first sight.
I did try a chocolate chip pancake, which wasn’t photogenic at all, but Hamsley said it was the best out of the whole batch. I also tried one with rainbow sprinkles… once again, not photogenic 🙁 The way to make sprinkles photogenic is as a decoration at the end I’ve learnt after checking out other people’s brownie batter pancakes.
Yes, they were awesome. Who doesn’t love a little treat for breakfast on the weekends?
Brownie Batter Pancakes
Ever so slightly adapted from Marta: What Should I Eat For Breakfast Today?
½ cup plain flour
½ tsp baking powder
2 tbsp dark cocoa
2 tbsp sugar
pinch of salt
3 tbsp vegetable or ground nut oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
10 tbsp milk
1. In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients with a whisk and until the dough is smooth.
2. Fry 2-3 tablespoons per pancake over a medium heat. This amount will make about 10 small pancakes.
3. Top with your choice of toppings: eg/ whipped cream, chocolate sauce, jam, ricotta or bananas.
Serves 2.

What an indulgent breakfast, yum yum! As the PB addict I am, I’d totally be adding it to these!

I’ve made brownies pancakes some time ago, it was delicious, I used blueberries, but it looks so delicious with strawberries…
Iron Chef Shellie
Ah yes, but only discovered your blog so it was like Christmas! Haha
Thank you for the recipe!
Marta @ What Should I Eat For Breakfast Today?

This is the post ive been waiting for!!! *drools*
Hannah
Ah yes, it constantly annoys me than rainbow sprinkles dissolve and aren’t as sparkly as they should be when you mix them into batter! I s’pose brownie pancakes are almost as good. 😛
Maureen
How extraordinary are these?? I want some now and I’ll pretend it’s breakfast!

These look absolutely delicious!!! I can’t imagine just how good they are!! I think I would have some very happy children if I served these up on the weekend!

Ooh what a great idea! And I have a bottle of that sauce too! It comes in handy with last minute desserts and breakfasts 😀 Stay warm this weekend Shellie! 😀

Browsing through the interwebs definitely makes me more inspired to cook and gives me ideas for something that I would have never tried before as well – including this recipe! Though, I’m not as much of a sweet tooth, this would definitely be fun to make even for dessert :D.
Libby
Oh yum!
This would go down well with some ricotta and strawberries 🙂
Sara (Belly Rumbles)
Oh yum! Due to the strawberries it has to be healthy for you, right?
Martyna @ Wholesome Cook
They sounds fantastic Michelle, I’d serve with a little ice cream or (coffee) whipped cream for good measure!
Daisy@Nevertoosweet

HI! Questions for you: How chocolatey are these? Do they turn out moist at all? I recently made some chocolate pancakes, which were great, but still a little dry!
