Ever since I posted that picture of my baby-sized-zucchini, readers have been sending me zucchini recipes to try out (thank you!!).
But if you remember, I have this thing with pancakes – I can’t just stop at a good recipe. I have this overwhelming urge to change things. So, change I did.
And came up with a zucchini pancake recipe I’m proud of.
(My camera ran out of batteries right here, and I had to charge it and let my pancakes get cold while I impatiently waited until it held enough of a charge to take a couple more pictures)
Ingredients (makes 5-6 pancakes)
- 1/4 c all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 t baking powder
- 1/4 t baking soda
- 1/4 t salt
- 2 T ground flax + 7 T water (this is your egg)
- 2 T coconut oil
- 2 T stevia (sugar will work fine!)
- 1/4 c water
- 1 c grated zucchini
Combine all flax and water and set aside.
Combine the dry ingredients. Combine the wet ingredients (including the flax egg). Add the wet to the dry and fold in the zucchini. Cook in a hot pan (or griddle) for 3-4 minutes on each side.
Oh, you see some chocolate smeared on the plate? Yeah, I added chocolate chips to the last pancake.

Also, did you vote today?
You know you’re a dedicated blogger when you let food get cold so you can take photos of it
These look fantastic!
Haha…dedicated or crazy.
I’m the same way about pancakes. Even if I find a recipe I like, I don’t stick with it for very long. I read the King Arthur Flour blog and they even commented on how no one seems content with just one pancake recipe. Your zucchini version looks delicious, especially with the chocolate chips. And thanks for the reminder to vote
Mmm! This looks awesome !
I love hidden veggies.. and chocolate chips are the best!
pancakes are too delicious to keep the same. all good things needa get dressed up from time to time! you wouldn’t go out wearing the same dress every night of the week, why should you have to eat the same pancake recipe
these look great!
That has happened to me more than I care to admit.
(thoselookperfect)
Voted again! And those (pan)cakes look great!
yum! Sounds delish! I love squash infused foods like zucchini bread or pumpkin muffins! Ah so good! =]
Oh yummy!! Veggies and carbs..my fave! And you’re a girl after my own heart for adding the chocolate at the end!
Just voted!
And YUM. If this is not a breakfast of the best blogger in Denver, I don’t know what is! Can we make these when we spend our mornings together in the (hopefully near) future??
Haha, thank you! And yes please!
This may very well be what I have for breakfast tomorrow!! (And I’ve totally run out of battery in the middle of taking pictures and eaten a cold dish. The things we do for blogging!!)
This exact situation happened to me the other day too…I guess I need to invest in a second camera battery! But on the bright side, those pancakes look worth the wait – I hope to try them soon!
Mmmm, you know how I feel about pancakes! I had some last night, but the traditional kind.
Those look awesome! You’re so dedicated to let them get cold so we could have good pictures
Yum! Pancakes. I was looking at that picture with the chocolate on the plate and then went back up to read the ingredients. Then I saw the end part of the post! I would of done the same thing! Love chocolate pancakes.
Those look fantastic! When I was a kid whenever my mom would stop at a coffee shop to get coffee I would always beg for a slice of zucchini bread. I am going to make these too but i am going to have to add walnuts!
Mmm, that would have been a good addition!
