01
Step 1
In a big bowl, mix together the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. In a microwave-safe cup, melt the peanut butter and butter together for about 30 seconds. Stir in the buttermilk and egg until everything is smooth. Pour this wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until everything is combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and let the batter sit for about 5 minutes.

Step 2
While the batter rests, make the peanut butter sauce. Melt the peanut butter and butter again in the microwave for 30 seconds. Whisk in the powdered sugar and a pinch of salt until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

Step 3
Heat a large nonstick skillet over low heat and spray it lightly with cooking spray. Scoop about 1/3 cup of batter into the pan and use the back of a spoon to spread it out into a circle just a bit thicker than a quarter-inch. Sprinkle some candy-coated chocolates on top. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the edges look set, then flip and cook for another minute or two.

Step 4
Serve the pancakes warm, drizzling them with the peanut butter sauce and adding a few more candy chocolates on top for extra fun.
