Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Tbsp. Flaxseed Meal (ground)
  • 5 Tbsp. Water
  • 1½ c. Non-dairy Milk
  • 2 Tbsp. Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 c. Flour
  • ¾ tsp. Salt
  • 2 tsp. Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp. Baking Soda
  • 4 Tbsp. Sugar
  • ⅓ c. Chocolate Protein Powder
  • 2 Tbsp. Cocoa Powder
  • ½ Tbsp. Vanilla
  • 1 Banana (smashed)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl mix together flaxseed meal and water. Allow to set for at least 5 minutes.
  2. In a liquid measuring cup stir together non-dairy milk and apple cider vinegar and allow to set for at least 5 minutes to make non-dairy buttermilk.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl stir together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, cocoa powder, and protein powder.
  4. After 5 minutes, mix the flax egg with the non-dairy buttermilk, mashed banana, and vanilla.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl and mix together until combined. Allow the mixture to rest 15-30 minutes.
  6. Once the batter has rested, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with vegan butter. Use a ¼ cup measuring cup to scoop about a quarter cup of batter into the skillet. Let the batter cook for about 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form at the top.
  7. Flip the pancake and allow the second side to cook 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and place in a warm oven until you are ready to serve.
