Choco Choco Chip Pancakes Ingredients

White whole wheat flour: While whole wheat flour is our go-to for this pancake recipe, we suggest the following (and only the following) at a 1:1 ratio if you’re looking for a substitution:

• all-purpose flour
• whole wheat flour
• all-purpose gluten-free flour blend
• Unfortunately, we do not recommend substituting 1:1 for coconut flour and/or almond flour.

Baking powder: Baking powder is the way to go with pancakes! You’ll need 2 teaspoons.

Unsweetened cocoa powder: Can’t have choco choco chip pancakes without the cocoa powder, which gives these pancakes that delicious chocolatey flavor.

Chocolate chips: Can’t forget the choco chips! Mini chocolate chips will also work 🙂

Eggs: Eggs not only add fluffiness to this pancake recipe but protein, too! If you’re looking for a vegan option, you can try using 2 flax eggs instead!

Mashed banana: Since mashed banana is a delicious sweetener in this recipe, the riper the better! You can also sub applesauce if you prefer.

Unsweetened almond milk: We love the flavor of unsweetened almond milk, but feel free to sub equal parts of any milk of your choice!

Maple syrup: We used maple to sweeten up the unsweetened cocoa powder in these pancakes. It also adds a delicious maple flavor without using refined sugars.

Vanilla extract: Can’t go wrong with a splash of vanilla extract.

Coconut oil: We nixed the butter and used coconut oil instead for a silky smooth flavor and texture!

When should I flip my pancakes?

You know your pancakes are ready to flip when little bubbles start to form on the outer rim of the pancake and the bottom side starts to firm up. Make sure that you are using a low heat with these pancakes so that you don’t cook the outsides too fast or burn the chocolate chips!

Time for Toppings

Because pancakes aren’t complete without the toppings. Here are some delicious pancake topping ideas for you to choose from:

• maple syrup
• nut butter
• dark chocolate chips
• coconut chips
• honey
• slivered almonds
• sliced strawberries
• fresh blueberries

How do you freeze pancakes?

To freeze pancakes, let them cool completely. Then, sack two together and wrap them with saran wrap followed by tin foil (to prevent freezer burn). Place them in the freezer and freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw: let pancakes thaw in the fridge overnight or on the counter for a few hours, and then pop in the toaster to heat them up before serving!
