Snickers Pancakes Recipe

If you’re looking to take your pancake game to an epic level, welcome to the wonderfully indulgent world of Snickers-studded pancakes! 🍫🥞 Nothing beats waking up to fluffy stacks of breakfast joy packed with chocolate chips and gooey bites of Snickers, drizzled temptingly with caramel sauce. Let’s dive into this sweet adventure!

I adore beginning each day with a delectable spin on the usual pancakes, and Snickers Pancakes are an especially delightful version. They have a fluffy base made from my usual pancake batter: all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder, with copious amounts of chopped Snickers bars and mini chocolate chips thrown in for good measure.

As far as I’m concerned, you can (and should) eat these as breakfast, but they’re also a suitable dessert option, especially if you top them with caramel sauce and whipped cream.

How to Make this Snickers Pancakes Recipe

1. In a big mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt by whisking them together.

2. Take another bowl and mix well in it the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined; the batter may be slightly lumpy.

4. Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips to distribute them throughout the batter.

5. A skillet or griddle that doesn’t stick has been heated to medium and greased lightly with either butter or a cooking spray.

6. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet.

7. Scatter a handful of chopped Snickers over each pancake just before the batter sets.

8. Continue cooking until bubbles appear on the surface; then turn and cook the remaining side until it is brown and the pancake is cooked through.

9. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate for serving, and do this again with the remaining batter and the Snickers pieces.

10. Pancakes should be served warm with caramel sauce drizzled over the top. Chopped peanuts should be sprinkled on top. To finish, use whipped cream as you would a cherry on a sundae.

3. Or use 1 cup gluten-free flour for an option without gluten.
1 cup milk. Use almond milk or oat milk if you prefer a dairy-free alternative.
Two tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted: This can be swapped with 2 tablespoons of coconut oil for a dairy-free substitute.

Pro Tips

1. Preheat the Pan Properly: Ensure your skillet or griddle is well-heated before adding the batter. A drop of water should sizzle upon contact, indicating it’s hot enough. A consistent medium heat helps achieve evenly cooked pancakes.
