If you love chocolate, this recipe is for you! These fluffy pancakes are full of chocolatey flavor, are topped with a delicious chocolate sauce, and are 100% vegan. I made the pancakes and the sauce with protein powder to pack them with some extra nutrients too. I hope you enjoy these chocolate protein pancakes.
What you will need
Chocolate Pancake Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoon cacao or chocolate protein powder
- 2 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup dairy free milk
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
Chocolate Sauce Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla
- 2 teaspoon chocolate protein powder
- 1 ½ teaspoon cacao
How to create the pancakes
- Start by adding all of the pancake ingredients to a large bowl and mixing them well.
- Grease your pan with coconut oil and add about ¼ cup of batter to the pan for each pancake.
- Cook each pancake for 2-4 minutes on each side.
- To make the sauce, start by melting the coconut oil first. I melt mine by microwaving it for 30 seconds.
- Then add the maple syrup, chocolate protein powder, and cacao and stir them together.
- Pour the chocolate sauce over the pancakes.
- Optional: top with fruit of your choice. I added banana slices to mine.

Turned out great. I've tried other protein powder pancakes and they were terribly dry. This is definitely the best recipe. The chocolate sauce was also a nice addition.

2 servings = 2 pancakes?

No this recipe makes 6-7 pancakes! 2 servings meaning it feeds about 2 people 🙂
