Here's what you need to do:

To make the flax egg replacement, start by mixing the flax meal and water in a small bowl and set aside. 

Melt the vegan butter on the stove or in the microwave. 

Pour the almond milk, flax mix and maple syrup into a blender. 

Then add in the rolled oats, banana, cocoa powder, chocolate protein powder and baking powder. Blend to a smooth consistency.

Heat a non-stick frying pan to a medium heat. Grease the pan with a little oil. Spoon in a little of the pancake batter and cook the pancakes until they start to bubble on one side. Flip the pancake over and cook for a further minute on the second side or until cooked through. 

Repeat this process for all the pancakes.

Serve the pancakes warm with a little maple syrup or vegan butter.

Optional ideas for serving: top with sliced bananas, crushed nuts, or nut butter.
