Directions
- 1
Whisk the egg with sugar, oil, and milk in a large bowl until smooth and well combined.
- 2
Stir in the flour and cocoa powder until the batter is lump-free, then gently fold in the baking powder.
- 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
- 4
Pour a generous scoop of batter into the center of the pan and cook until the bottom is golden and bubbles appear on the surface.
- 5
Carefully lift the pancake with a spatula and tilt the pan so the uncooked batter runs to one side.
- 6
Spread a spoonful of Nutella and a few strawberry slices on the exposed area, then fold the pancake in half to enclose the filling, pressing the edges gently to seal.
- 7
Brown for one more minute, flip carefully, and finish cooking until both sides are firm and set.
💡 Chef's Tip
Keep the heat consistently low — this is the key to evenly cooked, fluffy pancakes without a burnt outside. Banana slices make a delicious alternative to strawberries.
