Chock full of hearty oats and melty chocolate chips, you’ll feel like you are eating cookie dough for breakfast!
Hmm. The same can be said for my Cookie Dough Baked Oatmeal.
I guess I just really like chocolate for breakfast.
No, I didn’t really top my pancakes—the ones I actually ate—with chocolate syrup. But I’d cooked a batch the day before and put them in a plastic bag to stay fresh. Well, silly me didn’t know that if you cover a batch of pancakes, they get gooey-moist and go bad. No worries; I now had a whole batch of pancakes to use for a crazy photo shoot. So the pancakes didn’t go to waste. (I hate wasting food.) And the next day, I quickly made up a new batch to eat for real.

Hi Katie,
I loved this idea. I doubled the recipe for hungry hubby and myself this morning and it absolutely did not work. Too soupy and so it didn’t flip without getting messed up. 🙁 I’ve put the batter in a bread pan to try and salvage it in the oven. Just wanted you to know in case anyone had a similar experience.

I love.your blog Katie! These are my go- to pancakes! I always have to double the recipe since my non vegan hubby loves them so much! I use 1/3 cup of flour and 1/3 cup oat flour. I always let my batter sit for a little bit so maybe that helps because they turn out great. I do make them small though because the bigger they are the harder they are to flip.
