Chocolate Stuffed Pancakes

Chocolate Stuffed Pancakes

These chocolate stuffed pancakes are a wonderful dessert and a great breakfast on weekends. They are vegan, gluten-free, and easy to make. I have recently updated the recipe for an improved chocolate spread.

Ingredients
  

DRY

  • 1 cup oats ground into flour (gluten-free if necessary)
  • ½ cup rice flour
  • 4 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground chia or ground flax seeds
  • 1 tsp baking powder

WET

  • 220 ml plant-based milk
  • 1 banana *see recipe notes
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

CHOCOLATE FILLING

  • ½ cup peanut butter *see recipe notes
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil melted
  • 2 ½ tbsp cocoa powder

Instructions
 

  • Start by making the chocolate filling. Put all "chocolate filling" ingredients into a small bowl and stir with a whisk. Spoon the chocolate spread into a silicone mold (see pic below). You will need to make 6 "chocolate discs" in total. Put the mold into the freezer for about 30 minutes.
    1/2 cup peanut butter, 2 tbsp coconut oil, 2 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • To make the pancakes simply put all dry ingredients into a bowl and stir with a whisk.
    1 cup oats, 1/2 cup rice flour, 4 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tbsp ground chia, 1 tsp baking powder
  • Process all wet ingredients (except the oil) in a food processor or blender.
    220 ml plant-based milk, 1 banana, 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir with a whisk to combine (don’t overmix the batter).
  • Once the chocolate discs are firm, you can start making the chocolate stuffed pancakes: Preheat a skillet to low-medium heat and add a little bit of oil (or use cooking spray).
    1 tbsp coconut oil
  • Pour about 1 1/2 heaped tbsp of the pancake batter into the skillet, spread it and place 1 frozen chocolate disc into the center of the batter. Add more batter (approx. 1 1/2 tbsp) to cover the chocolate.
  • Put a lid on the skillet and cook the pancake for about 3 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook if from the other side for a further 2 minutes or until golden brown. Continue with the remaining 5 pancakes (Tip: Use two skillets at the same time to save time).
  • Keep the pancakes warm until you serve them.
  • Enjoy with banana slices and a chocolate sauce!

Notes

• To make oat flour simply process oats in a blender.
• You can use 80 g of applesauce instead of banana.
• The chocolate filling isn’t very sweet. If you prefer it sweeter, then add 1-2 tbsp maple syrup (or more to taste). You can use any nut butter of choice, e.g. hazelnut butter, peanut butter, cashew butter, etc.
