Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tablespoons Cocoa Powder
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tablespoons Melted Butter
  • 1 tablespoon Red Gel Food Coloring

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and red gel food coloring.
  3. Incorporate Dry and Wet: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, gently folding them together. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Heat Your Griddle: Preheat your griddle or skillet over medium heat with a small amount of butter or oil.
  5. Cook the Pancakes: Pour batter onto the griddle, about 1/4 cup for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form, then flip and cook until golden brown.

Notes
