- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 3 Tbs Cocoa Powder
- ¾ tsp cinnamon

- 1 Tbs sugar

Directions
- For pancakes: combine dry ingredient together in one bowl, and wet ingredients in another. Add wet ingredient to dry and whisk together until all elements of your batter are fully incorporated with no lumps. Keep in mind, this is a pourable batter and should be fairly loose. Fold in peanut butter chips or chocolate chips if using.
- Heat a little bit of vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet. Ladle batter into the pan. Air bubbles with start to form at pop at the surface of the pancake; wait until most of the bubbles have stopped or slowed down, and flip. Cook other side of pancakes for a minute or so.
- For caramel sauce: heat sugar and water in a small sauce pan and bring to a simmer. Keep a watchful eye and a low flame. Simmer sugar water mixture until it begins to turn golden; the sugar will quickly begin to caramelizeâit is important to stay alert so that it doesnât burn. Remove pan from heat and quickly whisk in the butter. Wait a few seconds and slowly incorporate the milk, adding a little at a time and whisking. Remove caramel from pan and cool. The sauce should be light brown, slightly thick and pourable.
- Pour caramel sauce over pancakes to serve. Top with a dusting of confectionerâs sugar and whipped cream.
