Homemade Chocolate Chip Pancakes

Chocolate Chip Pancake Mix

Pancakes are an all around favorite to many people. While they are not the most healthy of all breakfasts, they sure do taste delicious! I enjoy making pancakes on the weekends because it’s the time where I can really enjoy them with my son. I typically buy a box of pancake mix, add some water and BOOM..I have delicious pancakes. This morning I was really craving chocolate chip pancakes but I didn’t have any box mix so I adapted a recipe I found online to make it a little bit healthier. Obviously, pancakes aren’t the most nutritious breakfast and the chocolate chips don’t help my case but hey, it’s the weekend!!

What I like about the recipe is that it is easy and most ingredients you’ll have on hand. I also enjoy making breakfast on the weekends because my son is to the age where he loves to help me with everything! This morning he had to help me make the pancakes and also eat some extra chocolate chips 🙂

 These pancakes were so tasty! My new favorite thing to do to get a nice even spread on anything that you may use coconut oil on is spray it with our Kelapo Coconut Oil Cooking Spray. It is the perfect amount of oil and tastes way better then butter…at least in my opinion. Also, don’t forget to top your pancakes with a little maple syrup! This gives them just a little kick of sweetness. To make our breakfast a little healthier, we had turkey sausage as our protein.

What are some of your favorite meals to make on the weekends?
