Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ripe banana
- 2 eggs
- 3 tbsp pea or whey protein powder
Instructions
1. Prepare the Batter:
- Mash the ripe banana in a bowl until smooth.
- Whisk in the eggs until fully combined.
- Stir in the protein powder to create a smooth batter.
2. Cook the Pancakes:
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
- Pour a small amount of batter onto the skillet to form each pancake (about 2-3 tablespoons per pancake).
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles form and the edges set.
- Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
3. Serve:
- Stack the pancakes and serve warm. Pair with toppings like fresh fruit, yogurt, nuts, or a drizzle of maple syrup for extra flavor.
Notes
- Protein Powder Options: Use your preferred protein powder flavor (vanilla, chocolate, or unflavored). Adjust sweetness based on the powder.
- Texture Tip: For a smoother batter, blend all ingredients in a blender instead of mashing and whisking.
- Batch Cooking: Double or triple the recipe to make a larger batch. Leftovers can be refrigerated or frozen for quick meals.
