Chocolate Orange Oatcakes

I have seen this stack made many a time, and decided to post a recipe to my own interpretation. The flavor combination is classic.


You won't be able to taste any banana. Promise. The orange masks it perfectly.

Chocolate Orange Oatcakes


Ingredients:

1/2 Cup/45g Rolled Oats
1/4 Tsp Baking powder
Pinch of Salt
2 TBSP Cocoa powder
1/4 Tsp Vanilla extract
1 Banana

Toppings:
Maple Vanilla greek yogurt, 1 TBSP of cocoa powder
Raw chocolate sauce
Orange segments
Cacao nibs

Method:

1. Zest your orange, and segment. Set aside the segments. squeeze the juice from the orange 'carcus' into a glass.
1. Blend Oats, baking powder and cocoa powder to a fine flour, saving the tbsp for adding later.
2. Blend in the banana, vanilla, zest and half the milk at first. Add the orange juice tablespoon at a time till you get the right consistency. It should be thick like paint. Add in the oats and mix in.
3. Heat a pan or griddle over a meduim heat. Once its ready spray with non stick spray.
4. Spoon batter into the pan and smooth into rounds, 1/4 measures or a heaped TBSP is the right size. When bubbles form on the surface and the edges of are set enough to get a spatula underneath flip them over and cook for another minute on the other side. Repeat till on the batter has been used up.
5. Serve layered with toppings of choice. (Mix the cocoa powder with half the yogurt to make chocolate yogurt.)
