Fluffy and decadent red velvet pancakes with a hint of cocoa, perfect for a festive breakfast or brunch. Served best with cream cheese glaze or maple syrup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and red food coloring.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter will be slightly lumpy.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until cooked through.
  7. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with cream cheese glaze or maple syrup.

Notes

  • To make cream cheese glaze, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Adjust red food coloring to achieve desired color intensity.
  • Pancakes can be kept warm in a 200°F oven while finishing the batch.
