Chocolate-Hazelnut and Banana Pancakes

 I recently came up with this recipe while I was sitting in Farmhouse. Each year, they host an event called “Philanthro-cakes” in hopes to donate towards K-State Proud. This is such as great event that I enjoy going to. Here’s my "Philanthro-cake"

inspired recipe: Chocolate-Hazelnut and Banana Pancakes.

Dry Ingredients

• ·      1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• ·      1 tablespoon of baking powder
• ·      1 tablespoon white sugar
• ·      1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

• ·      1 1/4 cups milk
• ·      1 ripe banana, mashed
• ·      1/3 cup Nutella
• ·      1 egg
• ·      1 tablespoon canola oil
• ·      1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings

• ·      Strawberry Topping Ice Cream Spread
• ·      Nutella

1.    Preheat your skillet to a medium heat.

2.    In a large bowl, combine your flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together. In a separate bowl, combine your milk, banana, Nutella, egg, canola oil, and vanilla extract. Mix together and pour it into the flour mixture and whisk together until thoroughly mixed.

3.    Ladle batter in 1/4 cup portions onto a hot skillet. Cook until tiny air bubbles form on top. Judging how your batter looks, you want to make sure that you cook it for 2 to 5 minutes each side; flip and continue cooking until the bottoms are browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter. Keep finished pancakes warm.

When you stack your pancakes, take a spoonful of Nutella and coat a thin layer on it. Top it with a pancake, and repeat. Top it with another pancake, you’ll finish it by topping your pancakes off with an even spread of Strawberry topping

If you want, you can vice-versa the routine. Leaving the insides with Strawberry and the top with Nutella.
