Description
Delicious and fluffy protein pancakes that are simple to make and perfect for a filling breakfast.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 medium ripe banana (for sweetness and moisture)
- 2 pieces eggs
- 1 scoop protein powder (about 25 to 30g)
- 1/2 cup oats (quick oats or rolled oats)
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/3 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy, add more as needed)
- 1 tsp vanilla (optional but highly recommended)
- a pinch salt
- as needed butter or oil (for the pan)
Instructions
Preparation
- Blend the banana, eggs, oats, milk, vanilla, salt, and baking powder until smooth.
- Add the protein powder and blend again just until combined. Don’t overdo it.
- Let the batter sit for 2 minutes. This helps the oats hydrate and the batter settle.
Cooking
- Heat a nonstick pan on medium to medium low and lightly grease it.
- Pour small circles of batter. These cook better than giant pancakes.
- Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until you see bubbles and the edges look set, then flip.
- Cook another 1 to 2 minutes and remove to a plate.
Notes
For best results, keep the heat lower, allow the batter to rest, and make smaller pancakes for even cooking. These can be easily customized with different flavors or ingredients.
