Ingredients
- Protein powder
- 1 scoop (about 30g)
- Rolled oats
- 1 cup
- Ripe banana
- 1, mashed
- Egg
- 1
- Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 cup
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons (for cooking)
- Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, etc.)
- 1 cup, for serving
- Maple syrup
- to taste, for serving
Instructions
- In a blender, combine the protein powder, rolled oats, mashed banana, egg, milk, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the coconut oil, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.
- Pour 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, approximately 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the skillet as needed.
- Serve the pancakes warm, topped with fresh berries and a generous drizzle of maple syrup.
Tips
- For added flavor, consider mixing in some cinnamon or nutmeg into the batter.
- If you prefer a fluffier pancake, separate the egg yolk and white, beating the egg white until stiff peaks form, and fold it into the batter before cooking.
- These pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage. Reheat in the toaster or microwave.
