Ingredients:
-
1 cup oat flour (or finely blended oats)
-
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (about 25–30g)
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
1 tbsp coconut sugar or honey (optional)
-
Pinch of salt
-
1 large egg
-
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 tbsp coconut oil or butter (melted)
Instructions:
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, sweetener, and salt.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until combined.
-
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined — don’t overmix. The batter should be slightly thick.
-
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or butter.
-
Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake and cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on top. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden.
-
Serve warm with fresh berries, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
Tip:
For extra fluff, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking so the baking powder can work its magic.
If you want, I can also give you a chocolate high-protein fluffy pancake version for a richer twist.
