Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder (about 30g)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 1 medium banana
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk of choice
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional:
- cooking spray or oil for the pan
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender: oats, protein powder, banana, eggs, milk, baking powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth and let the batter sit for 2–3 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or oil. Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve warm with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, nut butter, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
Notes
- For extra protein, add Greek yogurt or a second scoop of protein powder.
- You can swap the banana for ¼ cup applesauce if preferred.
