Preparation Steps
1
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cocoa powder to ensure a lump-free and light batter.
2
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the milk, sparkling water, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
3
Melt the butter, let it cool slightly, and then whisk it into the egg mixture.
4
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking constantly to create a smooth, lump-free batter.
5
Add 30 g of ground hazelnuts to the batter and mix until evenly distributed.
6
Lightly grease a skillet with oil and heat over medium heat.

Pour a small ladle of batter onto the hot skillet, spreading it out in a circular motion. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the edges set and bubbles start to form on the surface.
8
Carefully flip the pancake with a spatula and cook for another minute, until golden brown.
9
Repeat the process until all the batter is used. If necessary, re-grease the skillet with a little oil between batches.
