This Protein Pancake Recipe Will Blow Your Mind

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Maryland chapter.

There’s nothing better for breakfast than a tall stack of pancakes. While you’re eating them, you’re in heaven. Right after you eat, you probably feel full and satisfied. But, just a few hours later, you’re starving. This is most likely because your meal lacks protein, the most filling macronutrient. That won’t happen with these protein pancakes. This recipe will satisfy your pancake craving and keep you full until lunchtime.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Emily Noel

    Whisk together protein powder, egg whites and baking powder.

  2. Emily Noel

    Slowly add milk until you reach desired consistency (runny, but thick enough to hold some shape).

  3. Emily Noel

    Heat a lightly sprayed skillet on medium high heat. Pour a scoop of batter onto the skillet, about ¼ cup for each pancake.

  4. Emily Noel

    Flip once you notice bubbles forming around the edges. Continue to cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until both sides are golden brown.

  5. Emily Noel

    Add toppings and enjoy.

Note: Different protein powders make react differently. The protein I used is a whey and casein blend, which works best for baking. Whey protein can be used, but may come out slightly dry.
