Preparation
Here's a simple recipe for protein pancakes:
Ingredients:
1 cup rolled oats
1 ripe banana
1 scoop (about 30g) vanilla protein powder
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any other milk of your choice)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: toppings such as fresh berries, sliced banana, nuts, seeds, nut butter, maple syrup, or Greek yogurt
Instructions:
In a blender or food processor, combine the rolled oats, ripe banana, vanilla protein powder, unsweetened almond milk, baking powder, and vanilla extract.
Blend the ingredients until smooth and well combined. If the batter is too thick, you can add a little more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
Let the batter sit for a few minutes to thicken while you preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Once the skillet is hot, lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet to form each pancake. You can make them smaller or larger depending on your preference.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set.
Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter until all pancakes are cooked.
Serve the protein pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, sliced banana, nuts, seeds, nut butter, Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
Enjoy your delicious and nutritious protein pancakes for a satisfying breakfast or post-workout meal!
