Cocoa-Kissed Red Velvet Pancakes
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tbsp Nestlé Toll House Baking Cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 large egg
1 cup reduced-fat buttermilk or low-fat milk
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp natural red food coloring
heart-shaped pancake cutters or cookie cutters (optional)
butter, for garnish (optional)
powdered sugar, for garnish (optional)
maple syrup, for garnish (optional)
fresh red berries, for garnish (optional)
In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt; stir well.
In separate large bowl, whisk together egg, buttermilk, unsalted butter, vanilla extract and food coloring. Add to flour mixture; stir to combine. Allow mixture to sit 5 minutes.
Heat nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush with oil or butter. Add about 1/4 cup batter to skillet. Cook about 2 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on top. Flip and cook 1-2 minutes, or until bottom is lightly browned. Serve immediately with butter, powdered sugar, syrup and berries, if desired.
Tip: If using pancake or cookie cutters, be sure to coat with butter so pancakes don’t stick. Place cutters in skillet and pour batter into cutters. Remove cutters before flipping.
