Make the flax egg by stirring together 1 tbsp of flax seed meal and 2 tbsp of water. Let sit for 15 minutes.
Combine oat flour and baking powder in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together all wet ingredients except for the olive oil (flax egg, almond milk, and vanilla).
Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir.
Slowly add in the olive oil as you continue to stir the batter.
Add in the chocolate chips.
I would recommend letting the batter rest for around 10 minutes before using to allow it thicken.
Grease a pan with extra virgin olive oil. Set it to medium heat. Pour out batter onto the pan into pancakes.
Cook on one side until you start to see many air bubbles form. Then, flip. Cook until both sides are browned.
Continue until all pancakes are cooked. Serve immediately with maple syrup!
