Dairy free & gluten free friendly, Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pancakes
I seriously love pancakes. When I lived at home with my parents, my Mom would make me whole wheat banana pancakes with chocolate chips in them.
Except it wasn’t a stack of a few pancakes. It was one huge one that fit just perfectly on my plate. I only used a little bit of maple syrup so the flavor wouldn’t overpower the pancake itself. I’m not the biggest fan of drowning my pancakes in syrup, especially when they are so fluffy and taste amazing solo.
Even though I love love those whole wheat banana pancakes from my Mama, they definitely left me in a carb coma after, which is probably the worst feeling in my tummy.
Now I am making a lighter version with these Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pancakes that only require 7 ingredients and are ready in just a few minutes.
Instead of using mashed banana inside, I wanted to try adding some peanut butter flavor to these. I mixed together Better Body Foods PBFit (which is straight up amazeballs if you haven’t tried) and creamy peanut butter (natural) and added it to the batter.
Similar to my Oatmeal Pancakes and Flourless Apple Walnut Pancakes, I used oat flour instead of pancake mix or regular flour and stuck with coconut oil instead of using canola oil. I love being able to make my favorite foods lighter and healthier while making sure they still taste delicious. Hearty and delicious pancakes are hard to come by without using some type of regular flour. I still get so excited when my beloved oatmeal can help ‘healthify’ our favorite recipes for us.
We shouldn’t have to sacrifice the taste of our favorite foods for health, right?

Egg
