Simple gluten free chocolate protein pancakes. Made with oat and buckwheat flour, cocoa powder and Pulsin Natural Chocolate Protein which adds an instant light sweetness thanks to the inclusion of stevia.
These pancakes are my go to when I need a post workout chocolate fix. Topped with a quick chocolate sauce for some added indulgence!
