I have to say, nutella is probabaly one of the best things invented. It is chocolate flavored with the consistency of peanut butter. What’s not to love about that? But, I had to make these healthy. I honestly could not have been more happy with the result of these pancakes.
Healthy chocolate hazelnut protein pancakes made with Justin’s chocolate hazelnut butter. Whenever most people, or at least me, hear chocolate hazelnut, We immediately think of nutella. But, Justin’s chocolate hazelnut butter is natural and way lower in sugar.
The great chocolate hazelnut taste in these pancakes came from cocoa powder, chocolate milk protein powder, and hazelnut extract. I have really grown fond of the hazelnut flavor. And as you can probably tell, I topped the pancakes with some sliced almonds because I was out of hazelnuts and it gave a similar effect. Sometimes you just have to improvise.
