It doesn’t get much better than this! These pancakes have so many building-body, performance & recovery optimizing nutrients in them, it’s worthy of my happy-food-dance (yes, ask my family – it’s a thing!)
Chickpeas, cocoa and chocolate are great food sources of magnesium, a mineral that:
Helps maintain normal nerve and muscle function, which supports muscle contraction and relaxation.
Plays a role in energy production and storage, helping produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which fuels your 1-rep max and sprints.
May support the body’s production of insulin-like growth factor, a part of long-term muscle growth and strength.
Put it all together in a pancake, and you’ve got a nourishing, performance-friendly breakfast and a tasty snack to-go.
Have you tried cold pancakes as a mid-day snack? They’re great!
