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!

Fiddlehead season is here! After a long winter, fiddlehead season has finally arrived. Not familiar with fiddleheads or just want to learn a bit more about them, and how to cook them safely? Keep reading! You may have seen fiddleheads in the wild and not even realized it. That's because they are the furled fronds of a fledgling fern! The fiddlehead is the spiral of the plant that would unroll into a new frond of the fern plant. They are harvested before they unfurl, early in the season. Only the fiddleheads from certain fern varieties are safe to consume. Fiddleheads should never be eaten raw and must be cooked a certain way to be safe to eat, so be sure to follow the instructions below. Fiddleheads have been part of traditional diets in Northern France since the Middle Ages, and amongst many North American Indigenous populations for centuries. They are also popular in Asian cuisine dishes like gulai pakis.
Most candy and processed food products aren't naturally made with bright colors. They achieve that color by using synthetic food dyes. But are they safe for you?
