TOPPINGS

• 2 tablespoons (39g) maple syrup


• 2 tablespoons (21g) Hu Dark Chocolate Gems


• whipped heavy cream from grass-fed cows, optional, for serving


• chopped nuts (like almonds, walnuts, or pecans), for serving

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat a griddle to 325°F or set a frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the griddle or pan with coconut oil.
2. Combine the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and Hu Chocolate Gems in the bowl of a food processor.
3. Process until the gems become shards of various sizes; it’s good to have uneven pieces. Alternatively, chop the Gems with a sharp knife then mix them into the remaining dry ingredients.
4. Transfer the dry ingredients to a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.
5. Combine the coconut oil, eggs, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a separate small bowl or measuring cup.
6. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until evenly moistened and relatively smooth.
7. Spoon 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the griddle or pan, gently spreading them into 4” circles. Cook until bottom of each is golden brown; flip and cook until the second side is browned, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
8. To make the syrup: Combine the maple syrup and Hu Chocolate Gems in a small heat-safe bowl. Microwave briefly, 10 to 20 seconds, then remove and stir until the chips have melted smoothly into the syrup.
9. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a serving plate, pour the chocolate maple syrup on top of the pancakes, then add the whipped cream and chopped nuts.
10. For the filling, melt the Gems with the coconut milk. Stir until smooth.
11. Store uneaten pancakes in the freezer and reheat in a toaster oven to serve.
