EASY BANANA CHIA BLUEBERRY PANCAKES image

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons chia seeds
1 ripe banana, broken into pieces
2 eggs
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon (optional/or more to taste) dark cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon (optional) ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon (optional) vanilla extract
1 pinch sea salt
1 tablespoon (optional/or more as needed) coconut oil
1/4 cup (or more to taste) blueberries

Steps:

Blend chia seeds in a blender until powdery, 3 to 5 seconds.
Add banana, eggs, flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Blend, occasionally scraping sides down, until batter is smooth.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add coconut oil.
Pour 1/2 of the batter into the hot oil and sprinkle 1/2 of the blueberries onto the batter. Cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes.
Repeat with remaining batter and blueberries, using more coconut oil if needed.
Note: This is very adaptable, you can add whatever your tastes are, for example: chocolate chips, coconut, walnuts, etc. Substitute almond extract for the vanilla extract, if desired.
