Nutella Pancakes – Moist whole wheat banana pancakes drizzled with chocolate-hazelnut spread.

Stack of pancakes topped with banana, chocolate and nuts.
Let me to introduce you to my new favorite breakfast – Banana Nutella Pancakes. These are divine and easy and not completely bad for you. Yes, there is Nutella involved, but also, whole wheat flour and bananas … I mean, these pancakes are practically health food. 😉

These pancakes are the perfect blend of a little healthy and a little indulgent. The base of the recipe is whole wheat banana pancakes, which are great on their own, but even better when covered in Nutella. I like to slather Nutella on some of the pancakes and then messily drizzle more of it over the whole stack right before serving. I finish by throwing on sliced bananas and chopped hazelnuts. The bananas make these pancakes surprisingly light and moist.

I found these pancakes to be perfect as is. I did not add maple syrup or butter (see, I told you they were healthy ;). If you’re not a Nutella fan, the same method would be great with peanut butter, since peanut butter and banana are a winning combo as well. I’d suggest drizzling them with maple syrup though, since you won’t have the sweetness from the Nutella.

    These pancakes look yummy and quite healthy too. I wish you lived nearby so I could have you whip up some of these pancakes for my breakfast. You really do a great job pairing different flavors together. Once again, I’m anxious to try out another one of your recipes.
