It’s that time again, when we all give our hand at making pancakes. Lucky for us, @Papaya_Sunshine, has eclipsed everyone else with her beautiful Banana Pancakes recipe. With her permission we present this to you…

(TIP – Trust us, it will taste all the better while listening to Jack Johnson’s apt song of the same name… Link below)  

Go grab yourself:

• 1 cup of spelt flour (all purpose gluten free works great to) 
• 1 tsp. of baking powder
• 1 tbsp. Nutriseed Maca Powder
• 1 banana
• Pinch of cinnamon 
• 1 tsp. of vanilla extract
• 1 ¼ cup of almond milk
• 1-2 tbsp. of coconut sugar (optional)
• 50g Nutriseed Cacao Paste
• ¼ cup hazelnut milk
• 2 -3 tbsp. maple syrup (depending how sweet you like the chocolate sauce) 

You ready? Here goes…

For the pancakes:

• In a bowl Mash the banana as much as possible so that it's runny, then adding the vanilla and almond milk and mix well.
• Then add the dry ingredients and combine thoroughly until you have a batter.
• Heat the pan with a little coconut oil and add little dollops of the mixture to the pan.
• Wait until little bubbles start to form then flip the pancakes. Serve topped with peanut butter and chocolate sauce.

For the rich dark chocolate sauce:

• Gently warm Nutriseed Cacao Paste, hazelnut milk and syrup together in a pan over a low heat stirring continuously to avoid burning and sticking. You should get a lovely velvety smooth chocolate sauce to drizzle over your pancakes.
