Ingredients
1.5cupswhite whole wheat flour
2teaspoonsbaking powder
1teaspoonsalt
1egg
1 2/3cupsAlmond Breeze original almond milk
1/4cupcreamy peanut butter (I used natural peanut butter)
1tablespoonhoney or agave
1teaspoonvanilla extract
1/4cupmini semisweet chocolate chips
(optional toppings: extra melted peanut butterextra chocolate chips, and/or maple syrup)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt until combined. Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together egg, Almond Breeze, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract until combined. Pour the peanut butter mixture into the flour mixture, and whisk until just combined. (Be careful not to over-mix the batter.)
Heat a large saute pan over medium-low heat. When hot, lightly spray the pan with cooking spray. Scoop 1/4 cup of pancake batter into the pan for each pancake, then sprinkle 1 teaspoon of chocolate chips on top. Cook until the pancakes start to bubble and the edges begin to set, 1 1/2 minutes. Flip the pancakes over and cook the second side until golden, 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer cooked pancakes to a separate plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm, drizzled with extra peanut butter and chocolate chips (and/or maple syrup) if desired.
