    Ingredients

    For the Pancakes:

    • 1 cup (130 g) my multi-grain Pancake Mix use my gluten-free pancake mix to make gf.
    • 1/4 cup (62.5 ml) almond milk
    • 1/3 cup (83.33 ml) + water
    • 1/2 teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) lemon juice
    • 2 teaspoons oil optional
    • a generous dash of cinnamon and vanilla extract

    Salted Date Caramel:

    • 7-8 (7) Medjool Dates pits removed
    • 1 Tablespoon Maple syrup
    • water as needed
    • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
    • a generous pinch of fine sea salt

    Other:

    • 1/4 cup (20 g) shredded dried coconut
    • Melted Chocolate
    • Maple syrup if needed

    Instructions

    Make Pancakes:

    • Add the lemon juice to 1/3 cup water. Add the almond milk, water, oil, cinnamon, vanilla to the dry pancake mix. Mix until just combined and let sit for 2 minutes. If the mixture feels too thick (it is thicker than plain flour pancake mix), then add a tablespoon more water.
    • Heat the pan on medium heat. Grease with a little oil. Once the pan is hot, pour ladle full (1/4 cup) of the pancake batter for each pancake. Spread the batter a bit with the ladle if needed. Cover the pan for 2 minutes. Remove cover and continue for another 2 or so minutes until the top is bubbly. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Reduce head a bit to low-medium while cooking if the pan gets too hot. Or use your favorite pancake mix recipe, and adjust liquid accordingly.

    Toast the Coconut:

    • Dry roast the coconut shreds in a pan on medium heat for a few minutes until golden.

    Make Date Caramel:

    • Soak the dates for 15 minutes in hot water. Drain then blend with all the ingredients into a smooth paste. Use 2-3 Tablespoons of water or as needed for desired consistency. Omit salt for plain caramel. You can make the caramel before hand and refrigerate for upto 3 days.

    Chocolate Drizzle:

    • Melt 1/4 cup chocolate chips on double boiler with a Tablespoon almond/coconut milk. Add more milk if you like a more thinner chocolate drizzle.
    • Or mix equal amount of cocoa powder, maple syrup into a smooth mixture and use.

    Assemble:

    • Prep the toppings before making pancakes. Top each warm pancake, or just the top pancake with a generous amount of the date caramel, then sprinkle with toasted coconut and drizzle melted chocolate. Use maple syrup if needed and serve.

      I’ve thought about you today. I was looking for a fixer in India b/c I’m really curious about the animal welfare in India, but I hope one day I will visit it. Have you been there and where have you been to? Mmmm, I want some fluffy pancakes for breakfast – it’s so hard to make something like this here in Buenos Aires, my kitchen doesn’t have a mixing tool, blender nor a processor, I’m sure I can mix the ingredients easily with a table spoon. The date caramel & chocolate drizzle = amazing. I want to eat breakfast with you one day!

      Friday is my Sunday, and Larry is the pancake maker, maybe I can convince him to whip these up. (probably won’t take much convincing) Hope you feel better after the ordeal at the dentist. ugh!

      Holy cow! These look amazing. Samoa cookies were definitely my favorite girl scout cookies pre-vegan. My mom used to buy packs of them when they sold them and we would freeze them so they lasted.

      When I first saw the title my thought was it sounded like something that should be on the Sutra menu! I’m a little obsessed with waffles at the moment and I can see caramel and chocolate covered waffles in my future.

        I should go to Sutra. I just wish they had better seating. 🙂
        of course waffles and pancakes are interchangeable 🙂

      You’ve done it to me again. You just keep posting deliciousness.

      My husband has a Sunday morning ritual. Pancakes, plain. All he likes are straight up pancakes, nothing fancy. Something tells me that even though he would probably kill me for making these on a Sunday, if I presented him with a plate of these on say, Saturday, he would not object.

      This is the second blog post in a row featuring droolworthy pancakes. I think the universe is trying to tell me I need to whip up a batter. And who am I to disagree?
