Easy and Delicious Blender Pancakes with Chocolate Sauce
A simple pancake recipe for the whole family.

Who doesn't love pancakes? We love this recipe because it's simple, cost-effective and tastes as good as it feels!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup whole oats (we used Jo Anne's Place Bulk Oats)
- 1 ripe banana (we love EquiFruit)
- 3 Organic Eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- A splash (2-4 tbsps) milk or water
- A couple drops of vanilla extract
- Frozen or fresh fruit, nuts, and/or coconut flakes to garnish
Chocolate Sauce
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder
- A splash of maple syrup

Directions:
- Process the oats to a flour in your blender
- Add in the rest of the ingredients and blend it up.
- Heat a skillet, using preferably coconut oil, and pour in a spoonful of the batter at whatever size you prefer. You'll find smaller pancakes easier to flip. Wait until bubbles start to appear on the pancake before flipping.
- For the chocolate sauce, add the coconut oil to a pot and heat until melted. Add in cocoa powder and maple syrup and whisk until combined.
- Drizzle pancakes with chocolate sauce and add your favourite toppings (we used coconut flakes and frozen fruit!). Enjoy!
