Banana Pancakes

Upgrade your weekend pancakes with these banana pancakes made with melted peanut butter, walnuts and chocolate.These pancakes are super simple to whip up and result in a light and fluffy banana flavored pancake! The best part are the the toppings though. Melted peanut butter and chocolate are mandatory! I simply put chocolate chips in a bowl with a little coconut oil, microwave for 30 seconds and stir, then microwave for another 30 seconds. Stir until melted. Peanut butter will melt great by itself for a minute in the microwave. You can add coconut oil if it needs help melting.I used coconut sugar, almond milk and coconut oil for this recipe. The other ingredients you should have on hand, so if you happen to not have those three go ahead and use brown or white sugar, butter or another oil, and any milk. I love the addition of walnuts in these pancakes, but again if you don't have any throw in whatever nuts you do have or skip them!This is a great banana pancake recipe everyone will love. Have a great Sunday and I hope these make it onto your next brunch menu!
