Protein Pancakes
1 large egg
2 tbsp greek yogurt
½ cup (40 g) protein powder
⅓ cup (30 g) flour
½ tsp baking powder
½ cup (120 ml) milk of choice
Instructions:
Combine wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, Greek yogurt, and milk.
Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the protein powder, flour, baking powder, and salt (if using).
Combine wet and dry: Gradually pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, whisking until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes tough. A few lumps are okay.
Heat the griddle: Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
Cook the pancakes: Pour ¼ cup batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set.
Serve: Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fruit, syrup, or more Greek yogurt.
