I am a flippin' GEE-NEE-YUS. For real. (and modest too!)
This idea came to me a couple of weeks ago. It took me three times to perfect the measurments, but by George, I think I've got it! I am soooooo excited to share! Do these even already exist? No...my just-performed super official google search indicates this is a new development in the breakfast frontier. Mornings just got a little bit more exciting.
Imagine, an updated version of your typical fluffy chocolate chip pancake, but slightly sweeter, saltier, and gooey...just like eating chocolate chip cookies for breakfast.
A cookie-pancake hybrid, if you will. But without all the guilt, because you can call them pancakes.
Enjoy!
Chocolate Chip Cookie Pancakes
Makes 12
189 cals / 9g fat / 24g carbs / 4g protein
1 cup milk
4 TB butter
1 1/4 cup flour
4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
~3/4 cup chocolate chips (I like the mini ones)
1. Cut butter into chunks and place in a small bow with milk. Heat until butter is just melted (about 1 minute in the microwave for me). Stir to mix and set aside.
2. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar to a medium size bowl. Whisk to blend well. Set aside.
3. Lightly beat eggs and whisk into the milk mixture, whisking to mix well. Stir in vanilla. Add milk mixture to flour mixture, and stir until just barely mixed, batter will be slightly lumpy.
4. Heat griddle or pan over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray or lightly grease with butter. Pour batter onto prepared pan by 1/4 cups. Sprinkle each circle with ~1 TB chocolate chips. Cook until edges look done and center begins to cook, about 2-3 minutes, then flip over and continue to cook until done, about 1 minute or so more.

Genius. Pure and utter genius. Make me these.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely. I think the world is a better place now that these exist.
Deletemmmmmh, looks very yummy :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Klaudia! Do you eat pancakes in Austria, or is this a US thing?
ReplyDeleteCOOKIE pancakes? YUM! I've never even made pancakes from scratch, so the fact that you've been tweaking your own recipe is super impressive. I'd say you should make these for us on Sunday morning, but I have a feeling Bob will be the only one in shape to cook. Maybe.
ReplyDeleteI just started a few months back, in an effort to eat less processed foods. Before that I was an aunt jemima girl, all the way! I will share my typical pancake recipe too at some point, they are super easy.
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't see why Bob can't cook for us. Isn't that the point of a husband??
Well, that and to tell me I look pretty at all times. But he's been itching to use the giant griddle we got as a gift for a while.
DeleteI haven't made pancakes in such a long time, but I was always a fan of Jiffy/Bisquik because it's so easy.
Yep, pancakes are a US thing. I do make them but only because I've spent so much time in the US. We make "Palatschinken" here in Austria (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palatschinke) which are similar to French crepes. Also very yummy :-)
