Double Chocolate Velvet Pancakes and Banana Love Sauce

Servings: about 6
Preparation Time: 1 day of soaking and 15 minutes of preparation

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cups soft wheat berries
  • 2 cups kefir, buttermilk, or water with 2 tablespoons whey, lemon juice, or vinegar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 1/2 cup cocoa/cacao powder
  • 1/3–1/2 cup honey or sugar (or other sweetener of choice)
  • 1 tablespoon flax seed (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • dark chocolate chips

Directions:

Pour the first 3 ingredients in your blender and blend for a few minutes. Leave at room temperature overnight or up to 24 hours for improved nutrition.

Oil and preheat your pan (preferably cast iron) on medium heat (be careful not to let it smoke).

Add and blend eggs, vanilla, salt, and coconut oil to the first mixture. Make sure a vortex forms (if needed, add 1 tablespoon or more of water till batter is churning) before adding in cocoa powder, coconut sugar, and optional flax seed and blend till smooth. Finally, add baking soda and baking powder and blend in thoroughly but briefly.

Make your pancakes by simply pouring the batter from the blender onto your hot pan. Let it sit for a minute, then drop a small handful of chocolate chips on top to evenly distribute the chocolate love. When you see bubbles on the top and the edges firming up, flip it over and cook it for a couple minutes. Usually, the first side takes longer (4–5 minutes) than the second side (1–2 minutes).

Serve it on a fun plate and drizzle heavily with Banana Love Sauce.

Banana Love Sauce

Ingredients:

  • 4 frozen bananas, slightly thawed
  • 1/4–1/2 cup cream
  • 3–4 tablespoons peanut butter

Directions:

Blend everything together in your food processor or blender. Start with 1/4 cup cream and, if you want a thinner sauce, add more cream (I used 1/4 cup). You can prepare this the day before.

You can make the sauce while cooking the pancakes or prepare ahead of time and store in a covered container in the refrigerator. Drizzle in between pancakes for the best results.
