CHOCOLATE CHIP-BUCKWHEAT-BANANA PANCAKES

When it comes to breakfast, there are two kinds of moms: those who put chocolate chips in their kids' pancakes and those who don't. I'm a blueberries kind of mom. My sister is a chocolate chips kind of mom. Her chocolate chip pancakes have us whole heart and soul. My kids don't have any shortage of sweets; between parties and holidays and my baking addiction, they're far from deprived. But sometimes I want to be a chocolate chips at breakfast kind of mom. For those days, I have these pancakes. It would be unfair to call these pancakes either indulgent or healthy--they are a little bit of both. Most of all, these pancakes are a feeling my kids have when I've made them. They're about me being that kind of mom, if only once in a while.

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings (makes 6 small pancakes)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ripe banana
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup (180 milliliters) whole milk or almond milk
1/2 cup (70 grams) buckwheat flour
1/2 cup (50 grams) quick-cooking or plain rolled oats (not thick)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
Unsalted butter or coconut oil
Scant 1/2 cup (about 80 grams) bittersweet chocolate chips
Fresh fruit, honey, pure maple syrup, or powdered sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • Smash the banana with a fork into a smooth pulp (don't be tempted to add the other wet ingredients before this is done). Add the vanilla and milk and mash together. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buckwheat flour, oats, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add the wet to the dry ingredients and stir gently, being careful not to overmix; you want to keep these pancakes light and airy. Too much stirring will make them gummy and dense.
  • Heat a cast-iron griddle or skillet over medium heat until evenly warm. Add a bit of butter to coat the surface. When the butter sizzles, drop a scant 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) of batter onto the skillet in batches, leaving 2 inches (5 centimeters) between the pancakes. (Don't make your pancakes big; they are tender because there's no egg to bind the batter.) Cook until just starting to bubble around the edges. Dot the pancakes with chocolate chips, then flip (they should release easily from the griddle).
  • Cook on the second side until just done, usually a minute or two (if the pancake stays on the heat too long, the chocolate will scorch), turning the heat to low if needed. Repeat until all the batter is used. Serve warm with butter and your favorite toppings.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 35m

Yield 12 5 inch pancakes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup buckwheat pancake mix
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
4 tablespoons powdered sugar (plus additional for dusting)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (plus 2 teaspoons for griddle)
1 large egg
1 1/4 cups low-fat milk
1/4 cup mini chocolate chip (optional)
butter
1/2 cup fresh raspberries or 1/2 cup fresh sliced strawberry
raspberry flavored syrup or strawberry syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and place a baking sheet or oven-proof serving platter in the oven.
  • In a medium bowl, blend the pancake mix, cocoa and 4 Tablespoons of powdered sugar with a whisk or fork.
  • In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup mix the oil, egg and milk; Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir just until blended, about 30 seconds, leaving lumps in the batter (Do not over-mix.).
  • Let the batter rest 5 to 10 minutes then gently stir in mini chocolate chips, if using.
  • While the batter rests, warm an electric griddle to 375 degrees F then lightly brush the surface with 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil (a large, heavy-bottomed nonstick skillet or griddle on the stove, on medium high heat,will also work - heat until drops of water dance on the surface and evaporate) .
  • Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the heated griddle for each pancake, flipping the pancakes with a flat spatula when bubbles appear on the pancake edges, after approximately 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Cook until steam rises from the pancakes, about 30 to 60 seconds then transfer to the baking sheet or platter to keep warm in the oven until all pancakes are cooked.
  • Remove the platter from the oven, dust lightly with powdered sugar and serve immediately along with butter, syrup and berries already on the table.
  • Enjoy! ;).

Tips:

  • For a vegan version, use flax eggs (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water) instead of regular eggs.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To make the pancakes extra fluffy, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form before folding them into the batter.
  • If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk or water. If it's too thin, add a little more buckwheat flour.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning.
  • Serve the pancakes with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Chocolate buckwheat pancakes are a delicious and healthy breakfast option that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain, with fruit, or with chocolate chips, these pancakes are sure to be a hit.
