Sift the flour, cocoa, salt, baking powder in a large bowl and mix in the wet ingredients
Use a whisk to mix it together into a smooth batter. Do not over mix. You want a runny batter but not too thin.
Heat a non stick pan on medium to low heat. Brush with some melted butter. Pour about a 1/4 cup of batter into the pan. Once it starts to bubble. Flip it over and cook the other side. It should take between 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to remove it too soon or let it cook too quickly as the insides won't be cooked. You may have to adjust the heat if the pan becomes too hot
Serve warm with chocolate ganache or chocolate sauce and berries
- You can add about 1/3 cup of chocolate chips to the batter if you want double chocolate pancakes
- The pancakes are best served warm
