Banana Oatmeal Protein Pancakes

Banana Oatmeal Protein Pancakes

Few notes. If you don’t feel like using protein powder sub it with whole wheat flour. Adding sugar is optional, it really depends on how you’re feeling when you wake up. I normally don’t feel there’s the need as the bananas add enough sweetness; but who am I to judge?

Ingredients

Serves 2 (or 1 hungry athlete)

¼ cup / 0.7 oz / 20 gr rolled oats

10 banana slices (about ½ banana)

½ teaspoon baking powder

¼ teaspoon baking soda

pinch fine grain sea salt

1 scoop protein powder (or ¼ cup / 0.88 oz / 25 gr whole wheat flour)

dash of vanilla extract

¼ cup milk (soy, almond, hemp or regular)

1 egg (or 2 egg whites)

1 teasponn vegetable oil

2 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar (optional)

Directions

Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a separate bowl whisk together milk, egg and vegetable oil.

Combine the wet and dry ingredients and stir to combine. If the mixture is too thick (which might depend on the quality of the protein powder you’re using) whisk in further milk to achieve a pancake-like consistency.

Pour batter onto a lightly greased frying pan and spread with the back of the spoon. Cook on low until golden brown on both sides.

Top with maple syrup, cocoa, etc.
