Protein Pancakes

Nutrition per serving (estimate)

Why we like it

Banana sweetens the batter, and eggs and protein powder give each serving about 36g of protein. They cook in under 20 minutes and taste like a weekend treat, so they make a good breakfast on a training day.

Ingredients

• 3 eggs
• 1 banana
• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
• 1 tbsp almond flour
• ½ tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• 1 tbsp coconut oil
• Toppings: Greek yogurt, berries, honey

Method

1. Mash banana thoroughly in a bowl.
2. Add eggs and whisk until combined with banana.
3. Add protein powder, almond flour, baking powder and cinnamon. Mix well.
4. The batter will be thinner than regular pancakes — this is correct.
5. Heat coconut oil in a non-stick pan over medium-low heat.
6. Pour small amounts of batter — about 3 tbsp per pancake.
7. Cook 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on surface and edges look set.
8. Flip carefully and cook 1-2 minutes more.
9. Stack and top with Greek yogurt, berries and a drizzle of honey.
