Healthy Cocoa Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes image

One of my favorite pancakes ever! These are delicious, chocolaty pancakes with high fiber, reduced fat, reduced sugar, and even some fruit snuck in there (shh... don't tell!). Very yummy, very satisfying. If you wish to enjoy these plain, boost the sugar and the chocolate chips.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 35m

Yield 10 pancakes, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup skim milk or 3/4 cup 1% low-fat milk, plus
3 tablespoons skim milk or 3 tablespoons 1% low-fat milk
2 egg whites, lightly beaten or 1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup pureed overripe banana
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground flax seeds
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 -4 tablespoons milk chocolate chips, mini (or semi-sweet)
raspberry jam (warmed) or caramel sauce (warmed)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl whisk milk, egg whites, vanilla, and banana.
  • In large bowl, mix flours, cocoa powder, sugar, flax seed, baking soda and salt.
  • Add wet mixture to dry, and whisk just until dry ingredients are moistened, folding in chocolate chips.
  • Pour pancakes onto greased griddle (at about 350-375°F) and let sit until lightly bubbling and edges have began to firm. Flip and cook until firm and browned. Top with jam or a sweet sauce.
  • FREEZING INSTRUCTIONS: If you make these to freeze them, don't make the topping. Cool the pancakes on a wire rack, and then when they are completely cool, wrap them in tinfoil (I wrap them in packs of two for 1 serving) and freeze. Microwave until warm, then toast to unfreeze them.

COCOA PANCAKES



Cocoa Pancakes image

We serve these pancakes for breakfast every Valentines Day - even if it falls on a school day! They are very rich, but oh so delicious. The kids look forward to them all year! The original recipe from the Penzey's Spices catalog said to cook them in heart-shaped pancake molds, but pancake molds have never worked well for me. I just use cookie cutters. The "scraps" are just as delicious as the cut-outs.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 12 pancakes, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup flour
3 tablespoons cocoa powder (use the highest quality you can afford)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar (could also use Vanilla Sugar)
1 egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup mini chocolate chip
whipped cream or powdered sugar, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat electric griddle to 350, or use favorite pancake pan.
  • Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Mix in the sugar.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg, vanilla and milk. Pour in the melted butter.
  • Make a well in the flour and add the milk mixture gradually to form a batter (I prefer to do this by hand, but you can also use an electric mixer). Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the griddle or pan. Flip when they bubble and seem "set." Cut into shapes or serve as is.
  • Dust with powdered sugar and top with whipped cream, if desired. Garnishing the plates and top of pancakes with raspberries also looks nice.

1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons raw sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil

  • Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

Tips:

  • Use good-quality cocoa powder: The quality of your cocoa powder will have a big impact on the flavor of your pancakes. Look for a cocoa powder that is labeled "natural" or "unsweetened."
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking: This will allow the cocoa powder to fully hydrate and develop its flavor.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat: Cooking the pancakes over too high heat will burn them on the outside before they are cooked through on the inside.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately: Cocoa pancakes are best served immediately after they are cooked. You can top them with butter, syrup, or your favorite fruit.

Conclusion:

Cocoa pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are perfect for chocolate lovers and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy a stack of fluffy, chocolatey pancakes that will satisfy your sweet tooth.
