Chock full of hearty oats and melty chocolate chips, you’ll feel like you are eating cookie dough for breakfast!
Hmm. The same can be said for my Cookie Dough Baked Oatmeal.
I guess I just really like chocolate for breakfast.
No, I didn’t really top my pancakes—the ones I actually ate—with chocolate syrup. But I’d cooked a batch the day before and put them in a plastic bag to stay fresh. Well, silly me didn’t know that if you cover a batch of pancakes, they get gooey-moist and go bad. No worries; I now had a whole batch of pancakes to use for a crazy photo shoot. So the pancakes didn’t go to waste. (I hate wasting food.) And the next day, I quickly made up a new batch to eat for real.

I get so confused with the system of measurement!I’m European and we use kilos/grams for recipes. What’s one cup? Anyway love these!
How much brown sugar?
Thanks a bunch!
These were great of course. Thanks! One note however: This recipe may serve 1 – 2 very petite women, but it barely serves one normal guy.
Well, jury’s still out on “normal,” but I mean fit, of slightly above average height. =]
I’m eating these right now and WOW! Usually I douse my pancakes in toppings to make them better but I didn’t even need to put anything on top of these wonderful ooey-gooey cookie-pancakes!! I’m actually eating them with my hands just as I would a normal cookie :p They’re so yummy… really hits the spot 🙂 And LOVE how they have no fat in them. Great job as always, Katie!
I know you said you didn’t have chocolate syrup on the pancakes, but I make no such promises! And is that marshmallow sauce, just wondering?
Amazing pancakes!!!! I left out the chocolate chips and drizzled agave nectar on top to make them more traditional. I made mine in a Mickey Mouse waffle maker which seemed to work great! I can’t wait to try other variations with raisins and cinnamon or strawberries
My son has been asking for chocolate chip cookies, so I made these in waffle form for this morning’s Sunday breakfast. Delicious, thank you for sharing. I have your website on the Internet equivalent of speed dial. 🙂
Hi, do you think this would work with coconut flour as i am gluten sensitive? 🙂
Looks yum! 😀
I don’t think so, unless you tweak the liquid ingredients and add some sort of binder.
Katie, you were right; I do feel like I’m having cookies for breakfast! They tasted great, and are perfect for sneaking dessert into my breakfast. 🙂 But I was just wondering: how do you get your pancakes to turn out so round? Mine always become shapeless little blobs… Well, at least they still taste like chocolate chip cookies!
I went a little overboard on the chocolate chips but you did say galore right??? These were absolutely delicious!!
