Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 30 grams protein powder vanilla or chocolate, see notes*
- 30 grams oat flour sub with preferred flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 60 to 120 ml milk of choice see notes*
Optional Ingredients
- maple syrup or honey if using unflavored protein powder, see notes*
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine protein powder with oat flour and baking powder. Add the egg and optionally maple syrup or honey.
- Start mixing while pouring in the milk gradually, until the pancakes batter reaches a smooth consistency (see notes*).
- Pour one scoop of batter into a hot and greased pan. Cook your pancakes over medium heat until the underside is golden and bubbles begin to appear on the surface, then flip with a spatula and cook until golden.
- Serve with your favorite toppings - I used banana and peanut butter - or store in the fridge for a maximum of 5 days.

Notes
- You can make pancakes with whey, vegan protein powder or casein.
- For tasty pancakes without sweetener, use flavored protein powder (my recommendations are vanilla or chocolate). If using unflavored protein powder, sweeten the pancake batter with maple syrup or honey to your likings.
- Quantity of milk depends on the type of protein powder used. Whey protein requires about 60 ml (¼ cup), vegan protein powders and casein require more (about 120 ml or ½ cup).
