HEALTHY BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP PANCAKES RECIPES

Steps:

• Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and cinnamon in a large bowl.
• After mixing well stir in milk, banana, egg and vanilla.
• Fold in 1/4 cup chocolate chips.
• Heat a griddle, sprayed with oil on medium heat. Pour batter onto griddle making 3 inch rounds.
• Cook about two minutes or until tops are bubbly. Flip pancake and cook for another minute or until golden.
• Prepare remaining pancake batter as directed adding more spray if needed.
• Place on individual plates and sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips.

Steps:

• Whisk flour, chocolate chips, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk egg, buttermilk, banana, oil, sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, add the wet ingredients and whisk just until combined. Resist overmixing--it will make the pancakes tough.
• Let the batter sit, without stirring, for 10 to 15 minutes. As the batter rests, the baking powder forms bubbles that create fluffy pancakes and the gluten in the flour relaxes to make them more tender.
• Coat a large nonstick skillet or griddle with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Without stirring the batter, measure out pancakes using about 1/4 cup batter per pancake and pour into the pan (or onto the griddle). Cook until the edges are dry and you see bubbles on the surface, 2 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, 2 to 4 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining batter, coating the pan with cooking spray and reducing the heat as needed.
