How to Make Healthy Cocoa Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth.
- Whisk together the mashed bananas, eggs, milk (or milk alternative), and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup (use sparingly to maintain the reduced sugar aspect), or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
