Chocolate buttermilk pancakes with cinnamon syrup


 I made these for breakfast today because we had no school ( thumbs up for public holidays.) My sister loved them, and my parents both mentioned that they really liked the syrup.
( I just noticed that yellow splash on the plate, don't worry it's melted butter... ;)

Pancakes:
Recipe adapted from Averie Cooks.

1 c.  flour
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 c. buttermilk
1 egg
2 tbsp yogurt

Whisk together the dry ingredients in one bowl and the wet ingredients in another. Cook on medium heat flipping once on each side.



Cinnamon syrup:
recipe from Allrecipes.
yields: 1/2 cup

1/4 c. sugar
1/4 c. brown sugar
1 tbsp. flour
1/2 c. water
1/4- 1/2 tsp cinnamon.
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Heat the ingredients together in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Continue to stir for a minute and then allow to cool for around 10 minutes or until thick.

Enjoy!
