1 tsp baking powder
Cooking spray or olive oil for cooking
Instructions
-
In a blender, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, ripe banana, almond milk, and baking powder.
-
Blend until smooth and well combined. The batter should be thick but pourable.
-
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or olive oil.
-
Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake.
-
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
-
Remove the pancakes from the pan and set them aside. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or nut butter.
Notes
If you prefer a sweeter pancake, you can add a drizzle of honey, maple syrup, or stevia.
For a fluffier pancake, ensure to blend well and use the baking powder.
Make these pancakes vegan by using plant-based protein powder and dairy-free milk.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, microwave for 20-30 seconds or warm in a skillet for a minute or two.
