    Chocolate Pancakes | Vegan, Quick, Easy

    Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

    Chocolate-flavoured pancakes are great but have you ever tried chocolate pancakes that are actually FILLED with oozing melted chocolate.

    This sweet recipe takes the term 'chocolate pancakes' to a whole new level and they're totally addictive.

    I also like to drizzle maple syrup over the top of them for that extra sweetness but I totally understand if this is a step too far for some people!

    Here are some of my other pancake recipes: Fluffy vegan pancakes with biscoff, easy vegan pancake recipe with white chocolate.

    WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THESE MINI CHOCOLATE STUFFED PANCAKES

    • All-purpose flour
    • Granulated sugar
    • Baking powder
    • Salt
    • Water
    • Plant milk
    • Vegetable oil
    • Vanilla extract
    • Vegan chocolate

    HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE PANCAKES

    An aerial shot of the ingredients needed to make vegan chocolate pancakes. Flour, plant milk, sugar, water, oil, baking powder, salt, vanilla and vegan chocolate.

    Below you can take a look at a quick overview of how to make my chocolate-filled pancakes. The full method is down on the recipe card. If you’re looking for detailed steps, be sure to see it!

    STEP ONE

    Combine your dry ingredients in a medium-sized bowl, then add in the wet. Don't over-mix as this will affect the texture of your pancakes.

    STEP TWO

    Once your pan is piping hot, add a tablespoon of pancake mixture to the pan. Place a square of chocolate on top of the mini pancake then add more batter on top. After about 20 seconds flip the pancake and cook for another 20-30 seconds. You can fry multiple pancakes at a time as long as you stay focused.

    CHOCOLATE PANCAKE TIPS

    • Use a non-stick pan. You don't want your pancakes sticking to the pan. Greasing with vegan butter is also helpful.
    • After you have mixed your batter, let it rest for a few minutes. This will activate the baking powder.
    • Flip the pancakes when bubbles begin to form on top.

    MAKING THE CHOCOLATE FILLING

    The great news is that you don't need to. The filling 'makes itself'!

    By this, I mean that once you have added your pancake batter to the pan, you can simply place a square of vegan chocolate on top before covering it with more pancake batter.

    The heat of the pan, melts the chocolate. So simple!

    WHAT TO SERVE WITH CHOCOLATE PANCAKES

    I love drizzling maple syrup over my pancakes and I wholeheartedly recommend it. However, you could always drizzle more (yes more) chocolate over them.

    I also love powdered sugar sifted over the top of them!

    VARIATIONS AND SUBSTITUTIONS

    • You're not restricted to having chocolate stuffed pancakes. Instead of placing chocolate onto the pancake, you can add a blob of peanut butter or Biscoff spread! These will also melt nicely.

    HOW TO STORE MINI PANCAKES

    Place inside an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.

    Description

    These mini vegan pancakes are filled with oozing chocolate. Enjoy!


    Ingredients

    Units Scale

    Dry Ingredients: 

    • 100g all-purpose flour
    • 20g granulated sugar
    • 0.5 tablespoon baking powder
    • 0.5 teaspoon salt

    Wet Ingredients:

    • 65ml water
    • 240ml plant milk
    • 1.5 tablespoons vegetable oil
    • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

    Chocolate filling:

    • 1 square of chocolate per pancake.

    Topping: 

    • Maple syrup (optional)
    • Sprinkle of powdered sugar (optional)

     


    Instructions

    Making the pancake batter:

    1. Into a large mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. 
    2. Pour in the water, plant milk, oil and vanilla. Use a wooden spoon to mix until the batter is just combined. Don’t over-mix your pancake batter. This will make your pancakes dense. 

    Cooking the pancakes:

    1. Grease a medium, non-stick frying pan with vegan butter and place the pan over a medium-high heat.
    2. Let the pan get piping hot then spoon in 1 tablespoon of batter. 
    3. Place a square of chocolate onto the centre of the mini pancake then cover it up with another drop of batter.
    4. After a few seconds, the uncooked side will begin to bubble. This means that the mini pancake is ready to be flipped.
    5. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
    6. Repeat these steps until you have used all of the batter. You can cook multiple pancakes at once if you're feeling confident!
    7. Serve with maple syrup and enjoy!
