Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 large eggs
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 1 cup milk
- 3 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, or as needed
Instructions
- Preheat a griddle to medium-low heat according to manufacturer’s instructions.
- Mix or sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Beat eggs together in a medium bowl. Add bananas to the bowl and mash. Add milk, peanut butter, syrup, and vanilla; stir until well mixed. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir just to incorporate, being careful not to overmix.
- Grease the preheated griddle with butter. Working in batches, drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle and 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.
