Easy Banana Chia Blueberry Pancakes

Directions

Ingredients :

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1 ripe banana

broken into pieces

2 eggs

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon dark cocoa powder

or more to taste (Optional)

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (Optional)

½ teaspoon vanilla extract (Optional)

1 pinch sea salt

1 tablespoon coconut oil

or more as needed

¼ cup blueberries

or more to taste

Methods :

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.
