Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Oat flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1.25 cups Almond milk, unsweetened
- 2 Egg whites
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
- 1 Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder, unsweetened
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, mix the almond milk, egg whites, honey, vanilla extract, and avocado oil until well combined.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet using a little avocado oil if needed.
Step 5
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Step 6
In a blender, combine the avocado, cocoa powder, maple syrup, 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract, and water. Blend until smooth and creamy to make the chocolate spread.
Step 7
Serve the pancakes warm with a generous spread of the homemade chocolate mixture on top.
