PROTEIN PANCAKES

These protein pancakes are a healthy way to start your day! They're made with wholesome ingredients, they're gluten-free, and they're loaded with protein, which makes them much more filling than a typical pancake recipe.

What You’ll Need

One of the best things about these protein pancakes is that you only need 6 ingredients to make them. Seriously!

1. Bananas – Although it’s not necessary, I recommend using bananas with brown spots; they’re sweeter and have a more assertive banana flavor.

2. Eggs – Let the eggs sit at room temperature to warm up a bit. Room temperature eggs will hold more air when you blend them, and this means a fluffier pancake.

3. Your preferred protein powder

4. Oats – There’s no flour in this recipe, so the oats help add some body and make the pancakes chewy.

5. Baking powder

6. Salt

Ingredients

• 2 bananas

• 3 eggs

• 1/2 cup protein powder

• 1/4 cup oats

• 2 teaspoons baking powder

• Pinch of sea salt

Instructions

• Add all the ingredients to the blender and blend on high until smooth and creamy.

• Heat and grease a pan over medium-low heat. Pour pancake batter directly from the blender container onto the pan. Cook pancakes until bubbles start to form on the top, 2 – 3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1 – 2 minutes. Repeat until no batter remains.

• Serve pancakes and drizzle maple syrup if desired.
