These Vegan Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes are made with oat milk and are filled with chocolate chips and fresh banana. The perfect plant based breakfast!
Pancakes are the perfect weekend breakfast. They are quick, only require a few ingredients and the flavor combinations are endless. I had a couple of overripe bananas laying around so I made these delicious Vegan Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes.
Ingredients
Flour: Regular All Purpose Flour. I always use King Arthur brand.
Baking Powder: For lift.
Cinnamon: For a little background warmth.
Salt: For Balance.
Oat Milk: these vegan banana chocolate chip pancakes are made with oat milk because its neutral in flavor.
Mashed Banana: Mashed banana adds flavor and sweetness.
Canola Oil: To keep the pancakes tender.
Vanilla: As a background flavor.
Chocolate Chips: Because chocolate chips make everything batter.
Substitutions
If you don't have oat milk, no worries! Any plant based milk will work.
Also, the amount of chocolate chips is a guide. If you want more, add more!
Method
These Vegan Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes are super easy and quick to make.
First, combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk together.
Next, combine the mashedbanana, and the remaining wet ingredients in a large bowl.
Now, add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and whisk to form a batter.
Then, heat and grease a skillet, scoop the batter and immediately add chocolate chips.
Cook until browned on both sides.
And finally, serve with plenty of maple syrup.
Storage
To store these vegan banana chocolate chip pancakes, place parchment between each pancake, place in an airtight container or plastic bag and freeze for up to a month.
The parchment will ensure that the pancakes don't stick together.
Reheat in the toaster or toaster oven.
I don't recommend refrigerating.
Top Recipe Tip
Make sure the bananas are overripe. There is no additional sugar in the pancake recipe, so we are relying on the banana to be really sweet.
And mash the bananas well. The pancakes will mix better if the pieces of banana are small.
