Prep: 10 minCook: 10 minTotal: 20 min
Servings: 8 pancakes 1x

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe, spotty bananas (about 1 cup mashed)
  • 1/2 cup milk (whole milk, almond milk or oat milk works)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 3 tablespoons coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Peel the spotty bananas and place them in a medium bowl. Use a fork to mash the bananas until they are smooth and creamy. Then, add in the milk, egg, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Whisk the ingredients together until they are well combined.

  3. Once the dry ingredients are fully incorporated into the banana mixture, gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or a spoon.

  4. Heat a skillet or a griddle over medium-low heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or melted butter. Use a 1/2 measuring cup to scoop the batter onto the warmed pan. The measuring cup ensures that each pancake is roughly the same size for even cooking. You can adjust the size of the pancakes based on your preference, but keep in mind that larger pancakes may require longer cooking time.
  5. Let the pancakes cook on the first side until you start to see the edges appear less wet and small bubbles form on the surface, which usually takes about 2-3 minutes. Then, gently flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook them on the other side for another couple minutes.

  6. Once the pancakes are cooked to your desired level of doneness, transfer them to a plate. You can top them with additional slices of banana, a sprinkle of chocolate chips, and your favorite syrup. Serve them immediately and enjoy!
