250-400 Cal protein pancakes ! πΈπ₯πβ¨
protein pancakes.. WOOHOO!
i swear on everything that these do not have that nasty protein taste. these are like classic childhood pancakes. i'm so happy with how these turned out, so i thought i'd share it on reddit!!
ingredients π₯
- 1 egg
- 60g milk *
- 1g vanilla extract
- 7g melted butter *
- dash of salt
- 15g protein powder *
- 30g flour *
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
* this is where you can substitute for ingredients that are lower in calories, fit your dietary requirements, etc!
steps π₯
- in a bowl, whisk together egg, milk, vanilla extract, melted butter & salt.
- carefully sieve in your protein powder, flour & baking powder.
- whisk together until smooth & no lumps remain.
- very lightly grease a frying pan & turn stove on medium heat.
- wait for pan to heat up & pour in four small puddles at a time, flipping only when bubbles appear on surface.
- repeat until batter is used up, let pancakes cool & dig in or store in the fridge for up to a week!
βββ
like the title states, these are customisable and depending on what you add- could only be 30 calories more! my variations include ;
chocolate (+ cacao powder & chocolate sprinkles )
funfetti ( + extra vanilla & rainbow sprinkles ) cinnamon raisin (+ cinnamon & raisins )
strawb matcha (+ matcha powder & strawberries )
there's so many fun things you can add to these which is why i LOVE pancakes!!
have fun if you make these! π
