Ingredients
  

INGREDIENTS:
  • Rolled oats: 1 cup or 90g for our metric folks
  • Eggs: 2 preferably free-range
  • Greek yogurt: A full cup that’s about 240ml
  • One ripe banana the spottier, the better
  • A smidgen of baking powder: 1/2 teaspoon just 2.5g
  • Salt: Just a pinch so about 1/4 teaspoon (1.5g if you’re being precise)
  • Vanilla extract for that sweet aroma: 1 teaspoon 5ml should do
  • Your fave protein powder: 2 scoops
  • Optional but recommended: A whisper of cinnamon
  • Coconut oil: 1 tablespoon or 15ml – for that perfect golden finish
  • Total Time From Start to Fluffy Pancake Finish: A quick 20 minutes

Method
 

HOW TO MAKE THESE BEAUTIES:
  1. Grab your blender. In it goes: the oats, that ripe banana, eggs, Greek yogurt, and vanilla essence. Whizz until silky smooth.
  2. Now, fold in your protein powder, baking powder, and cinnamon if you’re using it.
  3. Warm up a skillet – medium heat’s the magic number. Add just a dab of coconut oil.
  4. For each pancake, drop 1/4 cup of your beautiful batter onto the skillet.
  5. About 2-3 minutes on one side – you’re waiting for those cute little bubbles. Flip it and give the other side 1-2 minutes.
  6. Keep on cooking until you’ve got a stack of golden High Protein Oatmeal Pancakes.

Notes

TOP CHEF TIPS:
Fancy an extra protein oomph? Chia seeds or hemp hearts sprinkled on top before serving are ?.
No blender? No worries! Oat flour’s a great substitute for rolled oats. Mix away in a bowl.
Batter too chunky? A splash of almond milk will sort that out.
Play around with protein powder flavors – vanilla today, chocolate tomorrow?
