Protein Pancakes (GF)
I love pancakes and for a long time, the thought of trying to make them ‘healthy,’ was disturbing. Yet here we are with a protein pancake recipe that will not have you missing a thing.
This one is a winner. Pancakes are easy to make but perfect fluffy delicious pancakes made with oats and protein rich ingredients is more of a task. After much trial and error, the eagle has landed. I really love pancakes with coconut whipped cream and fresh berries. My boyfriend loves maple syrup, bananas and cinnamon, really whatever floats your boat. This recipe makes 12-15 4-5” pancakes and I love to make the full batch on a Sunday morning and save the left overs to enjoy throughout the week. Do as you please.
Prep 10 minutes
Cook time 10 minutes
Total 15-20 minutes
2-3 servings
Ingredients
2 cups oat flour (blended oats)
1 tsp baking powder
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1 cup protein powder.
2 eggs
1 cup greek yogurt
½ cup almond milk
Extras: blueberries, chocolate chips, whipped cream, etc.
Preparation
Gather ingredients and blend oats into a fine flour if needed.
Add wet ingredients to a medium sized mixing bowl and whisk until homogeneous. In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients and then fold the dry mixture into the wet. Lumps are okay, try to not over mix the batter.
In a large skillet, add a tablespoon of butter or neutral oil. Pour ⅓ cup of batter into the skillet and repeat to fill the pan. Once the pancake begins to form bubbles at the surface, flip for an additional 1-2 minutes or until you reach desired doneness.
Add coconut whipped cream, nuts, seeds, maple syrup, fruit, greek yogurt, chocolate chips or whatever else your heart desires. Enjoy!
