How to make these fluffy chocolate banana pancakes
When I say these pancakes are super easy to make, I mean it!!
Mash the banana in a large bowl with a fork. Add the eggs and beat them with the banana.
Add the cacao powder and combine with a whisk. Make sure there are no lumps. Add the rest of the ingredients and combine well with the whisk or fork.
Heat a non-stick pan on medium heat with a bit of coconut oil. Add the pancakes batter with a tablespoon. Cook 3-4 minutes, until they're nicely brown.
Flip carefully and cook another 3-4 minutes on the other side. Repeat this process until you've finished all the batter.
Top tips to make the best healthy chocolate pancakes!
Take note of the below tips, because they are going to guarantee you succeed with this recipe!
- Roughly mash the banana, don't over-mash it. A few bigger chunks of banana give these pancakes a nicer texture. Also the ripper the bananas the sweeter the flavour!
- Don't tightly pack the coconut flour when you measure it.
- Make small pancakes (approx 10 cm diameter). They will be much easier to flip!
- Cook on medium heat, this is super important to ensure the inside stays nice and moist and the outside nicely brown without burning. Also don't overcook them or they will end up dry inside!
Equipment
The best part of this recipe is that it only requires basic equipment.
- Large mixing bowl
- Whisk, fork, spoon & spatula
- Non-stick pan
Leftover batter? Store it in the fridge!
If you have leftover batter store it in an airtight container in the fridge. The batter will last 2-3 days.
