Ingredients
Units
Scale
- Box of Complete Mix (see instructions for how much mix) – we use Krusteaz
- Water (see boxed pancake mix for how much water)
- 1 banana, mashed, for every batch of mix
- 1/2 to 1 cup of oatmeal
- 1/2 cup or less of dark chocolate (or semi-sweet) chips
- Optional: 1 tablespoon of flaxseed
Instructions
- Make the complete mix according to the box directions.
- Preheat griddle or skillet according to the directions.
- Take note of the consistency.
- Mix in the mashed banana.
- Add in 1/2 cup of oatmeal and stir. Note the consistency and add more water if necessary (moreso if you’re adding upwards of a full cup).
- Optional: add in the flaxseed.
- Let the mix sit for about 15 minutes to let the oatmeal soften.
- Take note of the mix’s consistency and add a little more water as needed. In total I may have added about 1/4 cup extra water when I added in a full cup of oatmeal.
- Pour 2/3 cup batter on the griddle/skillet.
- Drop some chocolate chips in the pancake batter on the griddle/skillet and push them into the batter.
- Flip when bottoms are golden brown (usually when the bubbles and holes are done).
- Remove from the griddle after a few minutes or until the bottom
