A close up of Hot Chocolate Pancakes

Since I haven't made a new breakfast recipe in a while, I decided to experiment with one that will be sure to please any chocolate lover; Hot Chocolate Pancakes. 

I'm not a big pancake aficionado for breakfast; mainly because I've been trying to stay away from gluten. As I get older, I'm finding that I have certain sensitivities to it and actually prefer protein in the morning to get me going.

Hot Chocolate Pancakes

My kids; however, LOVE pancakes so I wanted to try to make a gluten free version that were delicious enough for them to enjoy as well.

So I combined two things they absolutely love during the Winter months: hot chocolate and pancakes. Of course, I had to add some chocolate syrup,  whipped cream, marshmallows and a few sprinkles just for fun!

Ingredients needed

To make this recipe, you'll need:

  • gluten free Bisquick Pancake & Baking Mix
  • chocolate milk (I used 2%)
  • egg
  • oil
  • vanilla extract
  • granulated sugar
  • unsweetened cocoa powder (toppings are optional)

How do you make hot chocolate pancakes?

Start by combining all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk until smooth.

Next, preheat a nonstick griddle pan and either melt butter or spray with cooking spray. The griddle is hot if bubbles start to jump around when you place a few drops of water on the pan.

For each pancake, measure out a little less than ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle.

Cook each pancake 2-3 minutes or until the top is bubbly and dry around the edges; then flip and cook the other side until light golden brown around the edges.

This recipe for Hot Chocolate Pancakes makes 8 pancakes and were not overly sweet, like I originally thought they might might be. ~Enjoy!
