1
Whisk the pancake mix, almond flour, cocoa powder, sugar, honey, egg and milk in a bowl.
2
Put the butter in a heatproof bowl and microwave at 600 W for about 30 seconds to melt.
3
Combine with Step 1.
4
Rub the melted butter left over in your heatproof bowl from Step 2 with your hands into the cupcake tins.
5
Scoop the mixture from Step 2 into the molds using a spoon.
6
As the batter will rise while baking, fill the molds to about 80% full.
7
I greased the silicone muffin tray with butter, but omit this step if you are using paper ones.
8
Hold the muffin tray with both hands and lightly tap it on the counter to get rid of air bubbles and to even the surface.
9
Add the toppings such as chopped chocolate, chocolate chips or sliced almonds if you prefer.
10
Bake in a preheated oven at 170C for about 15 minutes while keeping an eye on them.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
