Instructions
First, in a small mixing bowl, add your dry ingredients and whisk them together (oatmeal, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt) until there are no more cocoa powder bouquets .
Then, in a large mixing bowl, add your coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla and egg and whisk them together. Add your almond milk and whisk again until smooth.
Pour your dry ingredients into your wet ingredients and mix them until everything is well incorporated.
Heat your hot plate or pan over medium-low heat. When hot, place your pancake batter in small spoons on your pan, forming small to medium-sized pancakes. Cook your pancakes for a few minutes on one side until bubbles form and the edges of the pancakes darken, then turn them over and cook them for a few minutes on the other side. Continue until you have cooked all of your pancake batter.
