We love pancake Sunday at my house. Today it is time for these wonderful Chocolate Oat Pancakes With Caramelized Bananas (Vegan and Gluten free)
Chocolate and banana are a true and tested combo that we all love, well almost all. My son decided that he no longer likes bananas… But he liked these pancakes, without the caramelized bananas.
It is so nice to have a quiet Sunday morning without having to rush out the door. Also a great time to experiment in the kitchen with some new pancake recipes.
Even thought I am not vegan or gluten intolerant I love vegan food and experimenting with gluten free options. Just making the same recipes over and over again is not for me. Off course I have my trusted favorites, the recipes that always work. But it is so much fun to think up new ways of doing things when I have the time.
What about you, do you like to experiment in the kitchen?

- Cocoa powder, I use a good quality that’s unsweetened
- Coconut sugar, you can also use light brown sugar

- Almond milk

For the Caramelized Banana topping:

Whipe the pan and heat over medium hight heat. Add the coconut oil and maple syrup or honey, stir to combine. Add the banana slices, and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and caramelized. Watch the heat and turn it down if the bananas browns too quickly, carfull so they do not burn.
