Chocolate Chocolate Chip Pancakes

As I've mentioned before, our family loves breakfast!!  Since going grain free (mostly), it's been difficult not to fall into the egg rut.  Scrambled is our "go-to" but sometimes I like to get crazy and fry them.  haha!  Anyway, I do a lot of scrambles that usually consist of whatever is left over in the fridge mixed up in scrambled eggs, omelettes, or hash, but sometimes it's fun to have something sweet for breakfast and my boys love them some pancakes!  So, this morning, I especially treated them and made these chocolate chocolate chip pancakes.

At first, Michael said "Mom, these look different.  They look really burnt".  haha.  I'm not the best pancake cooker in the world, but I definitely don't burn them totally black!!  lol.  He was very pleasantly surprised when he bit into the goodness that was these pancakes (if I do say so myself).

Sooooo, I'll get to the point and post the recipe already.  :)  Enjoy!!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Pancakes


1/4 c coconut flour
1/4 c arrowroot flour
3 Tbsp cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 c milk
3 Tbsp honey or maple syrup
1/4 c chocolate chips....I like these (affiliate link)
coconut oil for frying

Put all ingredients in a bowl and beat with hand mixer until combined (I turned mine up real high to get the cocoa powder clumps out...don't be afraid it will mess up...it won't).  Heat skillet on medium high and melt a small amount of oil (enough to cover the bottom of the skillet).  Using a 1/4 cup, pour batter into pan.  Reduce heat to medium and cook until bubbles form and start popping.  Flip pancakes over and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.  Remove from heat.  Serve warm and plain or with your favorite topping.
