Red Velvet Pancakes

This morning, I decided to be Betty Crocker and make red velvet pancakes! I found the recipe on Pinterest and went to the store to get the necessary ingredients and get started!

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

6 tablespoons granulated sugar

4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

2 large eggs

1-1/2 cups buttermilk

1/2 cup sour cream

2 teaspoons red food coloring (I only used 1 teaspoon)

4 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/2 cup chocolate chips (doesn’t matter what kind you use)

Directions

Combine all dry ingredients in large bowl and set aside.

(Egg, buttermilk, sour cream, food coloring, vanilla)

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, sour cream, food coloring and vanilla.

Add wet ingredients to dry, and mix just until combined. Add chocolate chips and fold in batter.

Pour about 1/3 cup onto medium/high griddle and lightly brown on both sides.

Sprinkle powdered sugar on top and serve with maple syrup.

These pancakes were pretty delicious! Like I said above, I only used half the amount of food coloring. I also had to add some regular milk in there because the batter was so thick it wouldn't even fall off the spoon! Besides that, everything worked out pretty good. I couldn't even finish my plate because they were so richly delicious. Throw in a glass of milk and you've got yourself a great weekend treat!
