Cooking Tips

• For extra chocolate flavor, you can add chocolate chips to the batter.
• To make the pancakes even fluffier, separate the egg and beat the egg white until stiff peaks form. Fold it into the batter before cooking.
• If you prefer a sweeter pancake, you can increase the amount of maple syrup or add a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top.

Storage and Serving

• These pancakes are best served immediately while still warm.
• If you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, simply warm them in a toaster or microwave until heated through.
