Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder until well combined.

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until smooth and uniform.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  2. 4

    Heat Pan

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.

  3. 5

    Cook Pancakes

    Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve

    Serve the pancakes warm, topped with maple syrup, powdered sugar, and whipped cream as desired.
