My Favorite Simple Homemade Healthy Protein Pancakes

I started making homemade protein pancakes when I was back in Missouri. I wanted something different than a shake or protein bar for breakfast, but still wanted it to be on the healthier side. I started with a couple of basic recipes, adapted them to include protein powder, and tweaked my new recipe until it was exactly what I wanted. It makes three servings which reheat well later in the week. This recipe has been a staple in my house for over a year. I hope you love it!

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup AP flour + 3 TBSP

• 8 TBSP (1/2 cup) protein powder

• 2 TBSP ground flax

• 1 TBSP baking powder

• Cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, etc

• 1.5 cups almond milk

• 1 egg + 1 egg white

• 1 tea ACV

• 1 tea Vanilla

Directions:

Mix the dry ingredients in one bowl, and blend the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until smooth.

Heat a large pan on medium to high then grease with a small amount of coconut oil (or oil of your choice). Use ~1/2 cup of batter for each pancake and cook 3 at a time (if they’ll fit). One batch should make about 6 pancakes.

Optional topping:

Ingredients:

• One peach diced into 1/4” pieces

• Juice of 1/2-1 lemon

• Honey to taste

• Cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice to taste

Directions:

Add all ingredients to a small to medium sized pan, mix well, and cook on medium heat until the fruit has softened and juice has thickened to s syrup consistency. You can also do this with apples.

Top pancakes with fruit and syrup of your choice. I love Mrs. Butterworth’s sugar free syrup.
