Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
- ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 – 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 2-3 tablespoon agave nectar (or maple syrup/honey for non-vegan), depending on preferred sweetness
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 heaping Tbsp natural salted peanut butter (crunchy or creamy)
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup finely ground oat flour
- ¼ cup gluten free all purpose flour or sub whole wheat or all purpose
- 2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- Chocolate chips
Preparation
- Preheat electric griddle to medium heat (or about 350 degrees F), or a large skillet on the stove stop. You want the surface to be hot but not screaming hot – oil shouldn’t smoke when it makes contact with the surface.
- Add flaxseed and water and let set for a minute or two in a mixing bowl.
- Then add melted coconut oil, agave nectar (or honey/maple syrup), baking soda, baking powder, salt, vanilla extract and whisk to combine.
- Add almond milk (starting with 3/4 cup and adding a touch more if needed) and whisk again until well combined.
- Next add oat and gluten free flour and stir until just combined.
- Divide batter in half and add cocoa powder to one bowl and peanut butter to the other.
- Mix until just combined.
- Add more almond milk if too PB made it too thick. You want a pourable batter that’s not “gloppy.”
- Once the griddle is hot, lightly grease and spoon on scant 1/4 cup measure of chocolate batter, then scant 1/4 cup of peanut butter in the center.
- Cook until the edges appear dry and bubbles form on top, then carefully flip.
- Cook for another 2-ish minutes on the other side. Will make 5-6 pancakes.
- Divide between two serving plates and top with a peanut butter cup split in half or a Tbsp or two dark chocolate chips.
