Banana Bread Chocolate Chip Protein Pancakes

5 from 1 vote
Banana bread lovers unite! These protein pancakes taste just like chocolate chip banana bread but take half the time to make and are packed full of nutrients. Simple, yummy and delicious is how I would describe these flap jacks. Topped with grass fed butter and pure maple syrup they make the best breakfast or brunch.
