Method
Step 1: Mix the dry ingredients.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together your flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Step 2: Add the wet ingredients.
- Pour in the egg, milk, and vanilla. Mix until everything is smooth and lump-free — no fancy equipment needed, but an electric mixer makes it extra easy.
Step 3: Cook your pancakes.
- Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat and coat it lightly with butter or oil. Pour about ½ cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until little bubbles form on top, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
Step 4: Serve and enjoy.
- Stack your pancakes high and serve them warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, a pat of butter, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
