How to make cocoa banana pancakes

First, always gather the necessary supplies :) and wash your hands! 👏

Mix all of the DRY ingredients. *sidenote: I decided to use 2/3 cup cocoa powder. If you don't want as much of a chocolate flavor, you can use 1/3 cup :)*

It should look something like this

Mash the two bananas in a bowl with a spoon. To make it easier, I cut the bananas into thick chunks before mashing. Try to smash as much as possible to prevent clumps of banana in the pancake.

It should look like baby food! 😜 Set aside until needed

Before mixing in the rest of the ingredients, have the melted butter prepared. Put the butter in a up and microwave for 10 seconds at a time until fully melted.

Incorporate all of wet ingredients to the dry and whisk together. Put bananas last.

Heat pan or griddle on medium-high heat. Allow butter to melt.

Pour desired amount of the mix. (Obviously I didn't mash the banana well enough and ended up with them in my pancake. Still delicious though!) cook for about 1 minute or until it begins to bubble.

When flipping, be careful as the pancakes are on the thinner side :) once flipped, allow to cook for about 15 more seconds, or until cooked thoroughly.

Enjoy! :) I decided to top mine with walnuts, raspberries, and a bit of powdered sugar.
