These gourmet pancakes are a decadent way to start the morning. They are a frequent request when my kids have friends stay overnight. They are very rich, yet light and fluffy. I find them great as is, but you are welcome to take breakfast to the extreme by adding whipped cream, sliced bananas, or chocolate syrup.

The perfect way to spoil the chocolate lover in your life, these pancakes are undeniably decadent. My daughter and her friends used to beg for chocolate chip pancakes after sleepovers, and if you're going to cave, you might as well go all out! Big flakes of sea salt add a nice crunch of saltiness to the caramel and temper the dish's sweetness.

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 to 5 servings (12 to 15 pancakes)

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 large eggs
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 1/4 cups buttermilk, at room temperature
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the griddle
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
3 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
Salted Caramel Sauce, warm, recipe follows
Confectioner's sugar, optional
Raspberries, optional
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 teaspoon fleur de sel or other coarse sea salt

Steps:

  • Whisk together the eggs, both kinds of sugar, buttermilk, butter, and vanilla in a small bowl until smooth. Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the egg mixture and whisk until just combined. Fold in the chocolate, cover, and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Heat a large cast-iron griddle or nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Brush with butter and continue heating until the butter begins to foam. Drop scant 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the griddle. Bake until bubbles start to form and burst, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook to set the other side, another 1 to 2 minutes. As the pancakes are ready, put them in a single layer on the baking sheet and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
  • Stack the pancakes on plates, drizzle with the warm caramel sauce, and top with a sprinkling of confectioners' sugar and some raspberries, if desired.
  • Combine the sugar and 1/4 cup cold water in a medium saucepan over high heat. Cook, without stirring or touching, until the sugar turns a deep amber color, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, warm the cream in a small saucepan or in the microwave. When the caramel is ready, slowly whisk in the cream and continue simmering until the mixture is smooth, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the butter and salt until combined. Serve warm.

BOBBY FLAY'S DOUBLE-CHOCOLATE PANCAKES



Bobby Flay's Double-Chocolate Pancakes image

Few adults would want this meal for breakfast, but it is an excellent recipe for parents to make the morning after a sleepover that had the children and their friends up late watching horror films and unfathomable YouTube comedy. I adapted it slightly from Bobby Flay's "Brunch at Bobby's" cookbook, released in 2015. Watching the effect of the sugar and chocolate on a sleepy child is its own sort of joy - and you can hustle the guests home before the inevitable crash. Serve with raspberries for reasons of taste and elegance (though strawberries or bananas would do in a pinch), and salted caramel sauce. Yes, you could insist on eating muesli and almond milk instead. But in Mr. Flay's words, "If you're going to cave, you might as well go all out."

1 1/4 to 1 3/4 cups buttermilk
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon instant espresso or coffee powder

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Breakfast, Brunch

Time 15m

Yield Makes 12 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

300g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
3 tbsp caster sugar
2 medium eggs
300ml whole milk
150g milk chocolate chips
butter , for frying
whipped cream or ice cream, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Sieve the flour, baking powder and ¼ tsp salt into a large mixing bowl. Add the caster sugar and stir until well combined.
  • Whisk the eggs and milk together in a jug. Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Use a whisk to combine everything and create a smooth batter. Fold through most of the chocolate chips.
  • Heat a small knob of butter in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat, swirling it round to coat the pan. Add 2-3 tbsp of the batter to the pan and cook for 1-2 mins, or until bubbles begin to rise to the surface. Flip the pancake over and cook for 2 mins on the other side for the same amount of time, or until golden brown and puffed up. Repeat with the remaining batter, keeping the pancakes warm in a low oven.
  • Stack the pancakes on plates and top with any leftover chocolate chips and a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream, if you like.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your pancakes.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the pancakes tough.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will help the gluten to relax and will make the pancakes more tender.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. This will help them to cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Chocolate chips, whipped cream, butter, and syrup are all great choices.

Conclusion:

Double Chocolate Chip Pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast that is perfect for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and fluffy texture, these pancakes are sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a special breakfast treat, give these pancakes a try!
