Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 large ripe banana
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup liquid egg whites
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- pinch of sea salt
- pinch of ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unflavored or vanilla protein powder
- 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed meal
- Blueberries or chocolate chips for topping
Instructions
- Place the oats, banana, eggs, egg whites, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, protein powder, and flax meal into a blender. Blend on medium-low speed until the mixture is thoroughly combined.
- Preheat a nonstick griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or coconut oil.
- Pour the batter onto the griddle, using about 1/4 cup for each pancake. You can add a few blueberries or chocolate chips onto each pancake at this stage.
- Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges appear set and dry. Flip carefully and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
- Serve the protein pancakes hot, with your choice of toppings.
