Cassava Flour Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes

brunch / gluten free / grain free / dairy free / vegan / kids menu

Sunday brunch just got a WHOLE lot better with these gluten free chocolate chip banana pancakes made with cassava flour!

This is the perfect guilt-less breakfast to have on hand. I mean, who can resist chocolate chip and banana pancakes? I certainly can not. Never have. These are made with cassava flour so they are gluten free, but still taste just as fluffy as the real deal. I like topping mine with more fresh cut bananas always. This time I added some powdered sugar. Usually I don’t go for very sweet breakfasts but I was just craving these I had to! I of course also topped it with some organic maple syrup. I heat it up always before I use it on my pancakes and it makes all the difference.

Here’s what you’ll need for these Cassava Flour Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes:

• eggs

• plant-based milk

• coconut oil

• vanilla extract

• cassava flour

• sea salt

• bananas

I love making pancakes on a weekend morning. I feel like it’s almost therpueatic. It’s a great breakfast to make with the kids, and they are of course totally customizable
