  • Salt: Just a pinch enhances the flavors of all the ingredients beautifully.

  • Milk: Whole milk gives richness; but you can use any variety you prefer.

  • Eggs: Eggs bind everything together and add moisture to your batter.

  • Chocolate Chips: Use semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips for that classic S’mores flavor.

Recipe preparation for S’mores Pancakes

How to Make S’mores Pancakes

Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined. Create a well in the center and add milk and beaten eggs. Stir until just combined; don’t overmix.

Add Chocolate and Marshmallows: Fold in chocolate chips and mini marshmallows gently into the batter. Be careful not to crush them or they’ll lose their adorable shape.

Heat the Griddle: Preheat your griddle over medium heat until hot enough that water droplets sizzle when dropped on it. Lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.

Pancake Time! Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top and edges look set—about 2-3 minutes per side.

Finish with Graham Crackers: Once flipped, immediately sprinkle crushed graham cracker crumbs on top of each pancake while they finish cooking. This adds that delightful crunch!

Syrup It Up: Serve warm drizzled with maple syrup—or if you’re feeling adventurous—a dollop of whipped cream!

With these steps followed closely, you’ll be rewarded with stacks of deliciousness that would make any campfire jealous! Enjoy digging into these S’mores Pancakes as they bring joy and laughter around your breakfast table.

Perfecting the Cooking Process

Start by preparing your pancake batter while heating a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once ready, pour in the batter, adding chocolate chips and marshmallows right on top for even melting.

Add Your Touch

Feel free to swap regular flour for whole wheat or add a hint of cinnamon for extra warmth. You can also drizzle maple syrup or chocolate sauce on top for added sweetness.

Storing & Reheating

Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat them in a microwave for about 30 seconds or in a skillet until warm.

Chef's Helpful Tips

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor; stale marshmallows will ruin that gooey texture
  • Don’t overmix your batter; lumps are okay, ensuring fluffier pancakes
