Easy protein pancakes
High-protein pancakes made with eggs, oats, milk, and protein powder, resulting in a light and fluffy texture. Ideal for post-workout muscle boost and a great breakfast choice for protein enthusiasts, especially when paired with nut butter or fruit.
Ingredients
- 1 banana
- 75 g oats
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tbsp milk or greek yogurt, dairy, soya, oat and nut milks all work
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- pinch of cinnamon or Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp protein powder whey, pea or whatever your preference
- coconut oil or a flavourless oil, for frying
- sweetener: stevia, granulated or powdered sweetener, maple syrup
- berries or sliced banana to serve
Instructions
- Blend the banana, oats, eggs, milk, baking powder, cinnamon, and protein powder in a blender for 1-2 minutes until smooth.
- Check if the oats have turned into smaller pieces. If not, blend for one more minute.
- Heat a little oil in a pan. Pour or spoon 2-3 portions of batter, leaving some space for it to spread.
- Cook the mixture for 1-2 minutes until bubbles start to form on the top and the bottom is golden. Then, turn it over and cook for another minute until it's fully cooked.
- Transfer the waffles to a warmed oven and make more with the rest of the batter. Serve them stacked with nut butter, maple syrup, and fruit.
Notes
If you want to serve them all at once, heat the oven to its lowest setting and put a couple of baking trays in there to keep the pancakes warm as you make the rest.
