Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon flax seeds
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 very ripe banana, mashed
- ¼ cup shredded zucchini
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons brown sugar baking blend (such as Truvia®)
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch sea salt
- cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Combine water and flax seeds in a small bowl. Refrigerate until mixture thickens and has an egg-like consistency, 15 to 30 minutes. Stir in almond milk, banana, zucchini, and vanilla extract.
Step 2
Mix flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar baking blend, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and sea salt together in a bowl. Pour in flax mixture; stir until batter is just combined.
Step 3
Heat a large griddle over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Drop 1/3 cup batter onto the griddle and cook until bubbles form and bottoms are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a baking rack to cool. Repeat with remaining batter.
