What you will need
Chocolate Pancake Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp cacao or chocolate protein powder
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 cup dairy free milk
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
Chocolate Sauce Ingredients
- 1 tbsp coconut oil

How to create the pancakes
- Start by adding all of the pancake ingredients to a large bowl and mixing them well.
- Grease your pan with coconut oil and add about 1/4 cup of batter to the pan for each pancake.
- Cook each pancake for 2-4 minutes on each side.
- To make the sauce, start by melting the coconut oil first. I melt mine by microwaving it for 30 seconds.
- Then add the maple syrup, chocolate protein powder, and cacao and stir them together.
- Pour the chocolate sauce over the pancakes.
- Optional: top with fruit of your choice. I added banana slices to mine.
