Homemade Protein Pancake

Healthy Protein Pancakes? Yes, Please!

Who says a healthy breakfast can’t feel like a treat?

Making your own protein pancake mix at home is not only budget-friendly but also lets you control the ingredients, so you can feel great about what you’re fueling your body with.

Tip: You can use any protein powder you like in this mix. Brown rice protein powder tends to have a milder flavour and a less “earthy” or typical health-food taste.

​DIY Protein Pancake Mix

Ingredients:

• 2½ cups (200 g) rolled oats
• ½ cup (125 g) plain or vanilla brown rice protein powder
• ¼ cup (50 g) coconut sugar
• 2 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp sea salt
  

How to Make the Mix:

Add the rolled oats to a food processor or high-speed blender. Pulse until they resemble fine flour.

In a large bowl, combine the oat flour with the remaining ingredients.
Mix well, then transfer to a mason jar or airtight container for storage.

How to Make One Serving of Pancakes:

Ingredients:

• ¾ cup (approx. 100 g) of your pancake mix
• ¼ cup (60 ml) water, milk, or milk alternative
• Optional: fresh or frozen berries or chopped nuts

Instructions:
Add the mix and liquid to a bowl. Stir well to reach a thick pancake batter consistency. Depending on your protein powder, you may need to add more liquid gradually, 1 tablespoon at a time.

1. Fold in any desired mix-ins.
2. Heat a lightly oiled or nonstick-sprayed pan over medium heat.
3. Once hot, spoon the batter onto the pan in your desired pancake size. Cover with a lid and cook for a few minutes until the edges brown.
4. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve warm with your favourite toppings — nut butter, fruit, maple syrup, or a dollop of Greek yogurt!

Enjoy your delicious, energizing start to the day — made with love, protein, and pantry staples.
