Dark Chocolate Banana Pancakes



Ingredients:
·      2 Bananas
·      2 Tbsp Almond Butter or Peanut butter
·      1 Scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder
·      1 Egg
·      Dark Chocolate chips

Directions:
1.     Mash the banana, nut butter, and egg until smooth
2.     Mix in protein powder and dark chocolate chips
3.     Cook until browned on each side
4.     Let sit for 5 minute to firm up

Overachiever: 
You can separate the egg and whip the egg white until it forms peaks on a mixer, then fold it into the mixture for extra thick and fluffy pancakes.  Mix in the yolk during the first step. DO NOT THROW IT AWAY, it’s like a multivitamin and is packed with extra protein. I put Greek yogurt on it to make it fancy. 

Triathletes need more carbs after a workout? Soak 1/2 cup oatmeal in a little milk or almond milk and substitute for one of the bananas.
