The Best Protein Pancake Recipe

Pancakes are my favourite breakfast, and this recipe is so good. They taste amazing, you wouldn't know there was nothing bad in them, and the macros are spot on, with protein from the eggs and protein powder, slow release carbs and fibre in the oats and banana, and a little bit of fat in the eggs. Topping possibilities are endless, these have got banana, raspberry puree (made from frozen raspberries microwaved with a tbsp of xylitol) and a drizzle of agave nectar, but you could mix up the fruit, add nut butters or yogurt, or substitute the agave with date syrup, maple syrup or honey.

Ingredients

(Serves 2)

1 banana
2 eggs
1/2 cup banana protein powder (or substitute with rice flour if you don't have/want protein powder)
1/2 cup almond milk
1/2 cup oats

Method

1. Blitz the ingredients in a food processor, whilst gently heating your frying pan
2. Spoon the mixture onto the hot pan (I dry fry these to make them healthier) into a pancake about the size of your palm
3. Cook for a couple of minute on the first side, until the mixture starts to bubble, then flip the pancake and cook for a couple of minutes on the other side until cooked through
4. Stack them up, add whatever toppings you like, and enjoy!
