These banana pancakes are gluten-free, dairy-free and free from refined sugar – to make vegan, substitute the 2 eggs for a vegan egg alternative (available from Ocado). Serve with the rich, vegan chocolate sauce here and top with sliced bananas and a scattering of seeds.

Prep time: 10 minutes | Cooking time: 12 minutes

MAKES

Four

INGREDIENTS

For the batter

• 1 banana, peeled
• 2 eggs (or vegan egg alternative)
• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 2 tbsp self-raising gluten-free flour 
• Oil, for cooking

For the chocolate sauce

• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 1 tbsp coconut oil 
• 1 tbsp cacao powder 

Topping suggestions

• sliced banana, seeds, and an extra drizzle of honey

METHOD

1. Mash the banana in a large mixing bowl. Add the eggs and honey and combine well with a fork. Mix in the flour. Leave the batter to rest for 5 minutes. 
2. To make the chocolate sauce, place the honey and coconut oil in a pan over a low heat. Once the coconut oil has melted add the cacao powder and whisk to create a silky sauce.
3. Heat a little oil in a non-stick frying pan, fill a ladle with the pancake batter and spoon into the pan. If your pan is large enough you can cook more than one pancake at a time. Cook on each side until golden then transfer to a warm place. 
4. Serve the pancakes with the chocolate sauce, banana and seeds. An extra drizzle of honey is optional but highly recommended!
