One thing about me is that I have the same breakfast almost every day. Actually, I’ve been alternating between two breakfasts for the past seven years, since 2016. If I don’t start my day with egg white oats, then it must be with this protein pancake pizza. Together with oatmeal, it is honestly the best: ready in 5 minutes, healthy and embarrassingly delicious. What is more, this healthy sweet pizza is so versatile that you can serve with any topping you like. Greek yogurt, banana, blueberries or peanut butter…The sky’s the limit!

The ingredients for healthy sweet pizza

This may be the easiest protein pancake recipe ever: you only need 4 simple ingredients, no protein powder! What is more, the ingredients in the recipe can be adapted to your tastes and preferences. Here is everything this recipe requires, plus more details and replacements.

  • Oat flour: use store-bought or homemade oat flour, gluten-free if it is necessary. You can also replace with spelt flour, Teff flour or all purposes flour.
  • Preferred sweetener: for a sugar-free pancake, this recipe uses erythritol. But you are free to make this protein pancake pizza with any other sweetener – maple syrup, honey, coconut sugar or brown sugar to name a few.
  • Greek yogurt: for a softer pancake and more protein, this recipe requires two tablespoons of yogurt. I like using Greek yogurt, but you can replace it with any other yogurt, also dairy-free.
  • Egg whites: for convenience I like using egg whites in brick. But if you can’t find them, just divide the egg whites from yolks, keeping the latter aside for other recipes. Unfortunately, there are no alternatives to egg whites or eggs.

How to make protein pancake pizza

Start by combining in a bowl the oat flour with the sweetener, the Greek yogurt and the egg whites. Stir the ingredients until you get a lump-free batter.

Heat a 20 cm (7.8 inches) nonstick skillet, greasing the surface of the pan with little oil or butter if it is necessary. Once the pan is hot, pour the pancake pizza batter into the hot pan and cover with a lid. Cook over medium heat for around 2 to 3 minute, then flip and cook on the other side. Et voilà, your protein sweet pizza is ready to enjoy! Or almost…

Sweet breakfast pizza toppings

Does somebody agree that toppings are the best part of breakfast?

Here at home, my girlfriend and I have a huuge cabinet dedicated only to breakfast toppings: all the nut butters, cocoa nibs, nuts, seeds, chocolate, granola. Ahh, that is definitely my favorite cabinet in the house!

Well, that’s probably why I love this sweet breakfast pizza so much: the way how I can serve it are literally endless! But I need to be honest here: I am pretty traditional when it comes to topping this sweet pizza: Greek yogurt and fruit are enough for me. But in case you crave something more, here are some ideas. Feel free to take them as inspiration and experiment with your favorite combinations!

  • Yogurt and fruit
  • Yogurt, fruit, honey and nuts
  • Banana and peanut butter
  • Peanut butter and chocolate chips
  • Homemade low calorie Nutella
  • Jam and peanut butter (PB&J)
  • Protein pudding

How to store this pizza protein pancake

This healthy sweet pizza can be prepared right before serving or ahead of time. If you like or need to meal prep, make your protein pancake pizza the night before, then wrap very well and store either in the fridge or at room temperature. If you keep it in this fridge, this sweet breakfast pizza will last for up to three days. And if you want a warm pancake pizza, make sure to reheat it in a pan right before eating.
