Description

Irresistible Spanish Churro Pancakes are fluffy pancakes coated in cinnamon sugar and drizzled with chocolate sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Pancakes
    • 1 cup all-purpose flour
    • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1 cup buttermilk
    • 1 large egg
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • For the Chocolate Sauce
    • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
    • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat the heavy cream until it just begins to simmer.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate chips until melted and smooth. Set aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  5. In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
  6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  7. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.
  8. Pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet.
  9. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2–3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  10. While the pancakes are still warm, toss them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
  11. Stack the pancakes on a plate and drizzle with the warm chocolate sauce.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy.
