How to Prepare Healthy Chocolate Ombré Pancakes [Vegan]

Blend everything except the cacao powder in a high speed blender until smooth.
Let the batter sit on the counter for 5 minutes, so it can thicken.
Heat a non-stick pan (or use some coconut oil for frying if your pan is not non-stick) and start frying one pancake at a time, flip when you see bubbles forming.
With each pancake, add a little cacao powder to the batter to make it darker.
Continue until the batter is gone and stack the pancakes up from dark to light.
For the chocolate sauce, just mix the ingredients together in a small bowl and pour over your pancake stack.
Add more toppings if you like! Some options are bananas, kiwi stars (cut out with a regular cookie cutter) and popped quinoa.
Enjoy!
