Ingredients

Scale
  • 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp red food coloring
  • 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk (more for a thinner consistency)
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until well mixed.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are fine.
  4. Heat a frying pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
  5. Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the hot surface for each pancake.
  6. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  7. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth.
  8. Gradually add milk until you reach your desired consistency.
  9. Stir in vanilla extract for added flavor.
  10. Stack your red velvet pancakes on plates and drizzle with cream cheese glaze before serving.
