Whole wheat banana chocolate chip pancakes


Ingredients
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking powder 
1.5 tsp baking soda 
1 Tbsp honey
1.5 tsp pure vanilla extract 
1.75 cups milk
1 large egg 
2 ripe bananas smashed
1/4 - 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (I use Enjoy Life vegan chips)

Combine flour, baking soda and baking powder. Mix in milk and vanilla extract until combined. Add eggs, honey and, mix until combined. Add smashed banana and chocolate chips and mix well with a fork smashing banana into batter. 

Heat non stick pan over medium low. Spray pan with non stick cooking spray and add batter. Allow first side to cook until bubbly and then flip using a large spatula. Cook until center rises and sides are not wet. 

The batter does not store well so I cook all of it in mini pancakes and refrigerate them for the week. I pack them cold in the kids lunches or heat them up for a quick breakfast. 

I serve these with pure maple syrup.
