Foodie for a Year: Valentine's Recipes

Today I'm sharing a recipe I've loved for years and recently took out again. It is from Chloe Coscarelli's Vegan Desserts

These pancakes are amazing! Tiramisu for breakfast? Maybe too decadent, but make them as pancakes and you'll be in LOVE!

Tiramisù Pancakes

From Chloe’s Vegan Desserts

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 Tbsp. instant espresso powder
½ tsp. salt
¾ cup water
¼ cup maple syrup
1 Tbsp. dark rum
1 cup nondairy semisweet chocolate chips
Canola oil
Powdered sugar
Vegan whipped cream, optional

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, espresso powder, and salt.
• In a separate small bowl, whisk together the water, maple syrup, and rum.
• Add the liquid to the flour mixture and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should have some lumps in it.
• Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
• Lightly oil a large nonstick skillet or griddle and heat over medium-high heat.
• Pour ¼ cup batter onto the skillet. When bubbles appear in the center of the pancake, flip it.
• Let cook on the other side until lightly browned and cooked through, about 1 minute more.
• Remove from the skillet and keep warm in the oven.
• Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed. If the batter becomes too thick, add a little more water, 1 tablespoonful at a time.
• To serve, dust the pancakes with powdered sugar and top with a dollop of vegan whipped cream if desired.
