I love to make chocolate pancakes, but adding spinach makes them even better! I promise, you can’t even taste the spinach!
These take literally minutes to make and are perfect for toddlers, and parents! I wouldn’t give them to babies under 1, because of the chocolate. Besides that, anyone will enjoy these pancakes and get a nice serving of veggies while doing it.
What You Will Need
- 1 Banana- adds the sweet flavor
- 1 Egg-see substitution below
- 1/4 cup flour- I use whole wheat
- Spinach- the ingredient that adds the nutrition and the fun color
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder- the chocolate in the recipe!
- 1 handful spinach-the special ingredient
Substitutions
- Eggs- you can substitute a flax egg for the egg.
- Flour-you can substitute almond flour.
Storage
After cooling completely, you can store these pancakes in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for 3 days. You can freeze in a zip lock bag for up to two months. To reheat, microwave for 30 second increments.

These were so good! My oldest is a very picky eater and she ate them all!
Yay that makes me so happy!!
This recipes are the best they’re all very easy and delicious
That makes me so happy to hear!
My toddler didn’t like it but I ate it and thought it was pretty good💕
They taste good! But they kept falling apart in the pan and I could hardly flip the pancakes. I used almond flour – would that have created the issue or over-blending the ingredients?
My toddler of 2 1/2 years old has become extra picky with vegetables at the moment or anything green!! She only left 3 of the pancakes, literally ate all of them while I was still making them!
