IMG_0831Okay, so these pancakes are amazing. You can use any flavoured protein powder you like. For this batch I went with chocolate. These pancakes can be enjoyed for breakfast, or even as a post workout meal after resistance training. They provide a great combination of carbohydrates and protein. 

Ingredients: 

  • 1 
cup whole wheat flour 
  • 1 
cup chocolate protein powder (BPI Sports Chocolate Brownie Best Protein Whey Powder)
  • 1 
tablespoon Spenda or Stevia
  • 2 
teaspoons baking powder
  • 1⁄4 
teaspoons baking soda
  • 1⁄4 
teaspoon salt
  • 1 
cup skim milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 
tablespoons canola oil

Directions:

  1. Heat frying pan to medium high heat add 1 tbsp canola oil to the bottom of the pan.
  2. Add all dry ingredients into a large bowl and mix.
  3. In a separate bowl mix egg, oil and milk together.
  4. Add the egg mixture to the dry and combine well.
  5. Cook on each side for about 2 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Serve with your favourite syrup. 

 

Makes about 6-8 medium pancakes. 

When I meal prep it’s just for one, so I always make a full batch of these pancakes and portion them in ziplock bags and freeze them. They keep perfectly and can be reheated in the microwave, oven or toaster.
