The most delicious pancakes you’ll ever eat! Made with ripe bananas and studded with chocolate chips, then topped with an amazing peanut butter-maple sauce, you’ll never go back to regular pancakes again!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I have a confession to make. <\/p>\n

I don’t like pancakes.<\/p>\n

I know, I know. That makes me practically un-American. But out of all the breakfast foods, I just find pancakes so uninspiring.<\/p>\n

UNTIL…<\/p>\n

I made these Chunky Monkey Pancakes. And now my life will never be the same.<\/p>\n

They are soft and full of flavor, and the combination of bananas, chocolate, and peanuts is just divine.<\/p>\n

How to Make Chunky Monkey Pancakes<\/h2>\n

Step 1: Mix all the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt).<\/p>\n

Step 2: Mix all the wet ingredients in a separate bowl (buttermilk, egg, vanilla)<\/p>\n

Step 3: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix.<\/p>\n

Step 4: Mash the ripe bananas and add to the batter, along with chocolate chips.<\/p>\n

Step 5: Pour batter into a pan to make the pancakes.<\/p>\n

Step 6: Cover with delicious Peanut-Maple Syrup.<\/p>\n

Hints for Chunky Monkey Pancakes<\/h2>\n

Hint 1: If you don’t have buttermilk (and let’s face it–who of us ever does?), you can make your own by putting 1 Tablespoon of white vinegar OR lemon juice in a measuring cup, and then filling it the rest of the way with milk.<\/p>\n

Since this recipe uses 1 1\/2 cups of milk, you’ll need 1 Tablespoon plus 1 1\/2 teaspoons of white vinegar or lemon juice.<\/p>\n

Just let the milk and vinegar or lemon juice sit for about ten minutes. The milk will curdle a little, but that’s actually what you want.<\/p>\n

Hint 2: To keep the chocolate chips from sinking in the batter, first toss them with some flour. About a Tablespoon of flour will do.<\/p>\n
