Protein Pancakes

A while back I posted the recipe for protein waffles, it took awhile to get to a recipe for the waffles that we liked. Well things were no different trying to find a good protein pancake recipe. I tried a good handful of recipes that just weren't anything to get excited about or consider making again. Many of the recipes for protein pancakes come out sort of "tough" and hard to eat, and that is not what your looking for when you're craving pancakes.

Finally I found a combination that seems to work and make some nice fluffy pancakes and the good news is they are protein packed, made with three sources of protein.

What you need: 

• I scoop vanilla protein (I used optimum nutrition) 
• 1/2 cup oats
• 1/4 cup 0% greek yogurt
• 3 TBS egg whites
• 1 TBS almond milk
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 cap full vanilla extract
• Cinnamon to taste
• Banana (optional) 

What to do: 

• Blend oats in blender to create oat flour
• Combine all other ingredients and combine with hand mixer
• Pour 1/4 cup per pancake onto hot skillet
• We like to slice up bananas and cook them directly into the pancake it caramelizes them and makes them super yummy
• Enjoy!
