Ingredients

Peanut butter sauce

Double choc pancakes

Method

Peanut butter sauce

  • Combine peanut butter, brown sugar, cream and maple syrup in a small saucepan and heat over low heat, stirring continuously for 3 minutes or until smooth and sugar has dissolved.
  • Pour into a serving jug, cover and set aside.
  • Sauce should have a thick pouring consistency. If it becomes too thick, stir in a little water or cream to loosen the sauce
  • Pour into a serving jug, cover and set aside

Tips & Hints:

  • Store peanut butter sauce in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Just before serving, warm over low heat or in the microwave, adding a tablespoon or so of cream or milk to get a pouring consistency.

Double choc pancakes

  • Sift flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder together in a medium bowl. Mix well. Make a well in the centre
  • Whisk together eggs, vanilla and milk in a small bowl
  • Pour into the dry ingredients, along with melted butter. Mix until just combined
  • Fold in choc bits and set aside to rest for 10 minutes
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat and add a little melted butter. Swirl until it begins to foam
  • Using a ⅓ cup measure, scoop pancake batter into hot frying pan. Cook 2 minutes or until bubbles form and burst on the top of the pancake. Turn over and cook for a further 1 minute
  • Place cooked pancakes into a large baking dish and cover with foil. Keep warm in a low oven while cooking remaining pancakes
  • Serve pancake stacks topped with sliced bananas, whipped cream and drizzled with the warm peanut butter sauce. Garnish with grated dark chocolate

Tips & Hints:

  • Wrap leftover cooked pancakes in cling film and refrigerate for 2-3 days. Reheat in the microwave in 30 second bursts until warmed through.
