MADE-IN-THE-PAN CHOCOLATE CAKE
This surprisingly tender vegan chocolate cake is made entirely in an 8-by-8-inch baking pan: Just toss in the ingredients, stir until you don't see any flour streaks, then bake. For flourish, add a small handful of chocolate chips before baking or sprinkle the finished cake with a little confectioners' sugar. Adapted from Mollie Katzen's "Honest Pretzels: And 64 Other Amazing Recipes for Kids Who Love to Cook," this recipe was developed for kids, but adults love it, too. It's an ideal snacking cake, or you could gussy it up with a simple ganache frosting.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 325 degrees. Add the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt to an 8-by-8-inch square glass or metal baking dish. Whisk the mixture together until uniform in color. Use your fingers to break apart any lumps.
- Add 1 cup water along with the oil, vanilla extract and vinegar. Stir slowly with a fork or a whisk in small circles to blend. Mash, scrape and stir with a fork and spoon until the mixture becomes a smooth and uniform batter.
- Scrape the sides of the baking dish with a rubber spatula and spread the batter in an even layer. Sprinkle with chocolate chips, if using.
- Use a damp paper towel to wipe the edges of the baking dish clean. Carefully transfer the dish to the oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the batter comes out mostly clean, 28 to 33 minutes. (Instead of looking like you dipped the toothpick in chocolate frosting, it should look like it has some chocolate cake crumbs clinging to it.)
- Remove from the oven, let cool, then cut the cake into squares. If you're feeling fancy, this tastes good (and looks pretty) with some confectioners' sugar dusted on top.

CHOCOLATE GINGER SPELT MIX IN THE PAN CAKE
I adapted this from a plain applesauce cake recipe to make it healthier and more flavorful. I love the combination of ginger and chocolate, but you could substitute other dried fruits for the ginger, nuts for the chocolate chips, whatever. You could probably also sub whole wheat flour for the spelt, and play with the proportion of white flour to whole grain as well. This is just where I started and we loved it! For those of you who don't weigh while baking, use about 1 C spelt flour and 2/3 C white flour.

Tips:
- Use a non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the pancakes from sticking and make them easier to flip.
- Heat the skillet over medium heat: If the skillet is too hot, the pancakes will burn on the outside before they are cooked through in the middle. If the skillet is too cool, the pancakes will not cook evenly.
- Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the batter onto the skillet: This will ensure that the pancakes are all the same size and cook evenly.
- Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown: Do not flip the pancakes too soon, or they will fall apart. When the pancakes are cooked through, they will be easy to flip.
- Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings: Pancakes are best served hot off the griddle. You can top them with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
With so many delicious mix-in options to choose from, you can create a pancake that is perfect for any occasion.
