Those pancakes look mouth watering-ly good! I’ve heard about protein pancakes and would like to give them a try sometime. For my version of pancakes I normally mash a banana and add an egg, it helps curb the sweet cravings😂 

how do you make those protein pancakes they delicious 🤗 

I'm still perfecting the recipe but it's basically like this for 1 serving (about 4 average pancakes): 1/2 a large banana 1/2 Tbsp peanut butter 1 flax egg (which is 1 tbsp flax meal mixed with 3 tbsp water/milk) OR 1 large egg 1/4 tsp vanilla 1/4 tsp apple cider vinegar (for rise) 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional) 1/4 to 1/2 tsp baking powder A pinch of salt 1 scoop protein powder (I use unflavoured pure Whey protein) Milk as needed (about 1/4 cup) 

Mix dry ingredients a set aside. In a seperate bowl, add banana (mashed with a fork preferably), peanut butter, vinegar, and egg/flax egg and mix until you get a thick, gooey consistency. Add dry ingredients to banana mixture and gently mix until fully combined. Add milk if needed until until you get a pretty thick batter. Let sit for about 10 minutes Add about 2 and 1/2 Tbsp batter to skillet on medium to medium high heat. Flip when bubbles form on top if pancake and edges get a bit dry. Cook on other side for a minute or until golden. Stack and enjoy with whatever you want. Don't overcook the pancakes as they will become very dry. You can try subbing in normal flour or a nut flour if you don't have protein. You can add extra sweetener to your taste, as the pancakes are not that sweet. 

EXTRA NOTES: I'm just estimating honestly, so this may not be accurate. So sorry 1 scoop protein for me is about 25g, but may differ with different protein powders. Don't overcook the pancakes as they will become very dry. You can try subbing in normal flour or a nut flour if you don't have protein. You can add extra sweetener to your taste, as the pancakes are not that sweet. Sorry for the spam 

I enjoy your kitchen creations :)
