1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) with a cast iron pan inside.

2

In a blender, combine 6 eggs, 1 cup sourdough starter, 3/4 cup milk, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, 3 tablespoons sweetener, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.

3

Blend the mixture for about 1 to 2 minutes until well combined and aerated.

4

Once the oven is hot, carefully remove the cast iron pan and add 1/3 cup butter to it, then return it to the oven to melt for 1-2 minutes.

5

After the butter has melted, pour the blended mixture directly onto the hot, bubbly butter in the pan.

6

Return the pan to the oven and bake for about 20 minutes until the pancakes are puffy and golden.

7

While the pancakes are baking, prepare the chocolate whipped cream by blending 1 cup cream, 1 tablespoon rapidor sugar, 1 tablespoon cacao powder, and a pinch of salt for 30 seconds to 1 minute until thickened.

8

Once the pancakes are done, remove them from the oven and slice them in a pizza-like fashion.

9

Top the pancakes with sliced banana, chocolate whipped cream, and a drizzle of maple syrup.
