Ingredients

2 medium ripe bananas, mashed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 cups buttermilk
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Melted butter for cooking pancakes
Sliced bananas, chocolate chips, and maple syrup for serving

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk mashed bananas, melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla, egg, and buttermilk until smooth. In a separate medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Fold flour mixture into liquid until batter is just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly brush with butter. Working in batches, drop pancake batter by heaping 1/3 cupfuls onto hot skillet and allow to cook 2-3 minutes on each side until pancakes are golden brown. Repeat cooking method with remaining batter, adding more butter to skillet as needed.
Serve pancakes warm with banana slices, chocolate chips, and maple syrup on top. Enjoy!
