    Imagine a pancake light in texture and full of berries, yet filling enough for the day after leg day. You're imagining these delicious Blackberry Ricotta Protein Pancakes!

    I made these with part-skim ricotta, but you can lessen the fat even more by using fat-free ricotta instead.

    With these Blackberry Ricotta Protein Pancakes and my Lemon Ricotta Protein Pancakes, it is especially important to spray your pan with non-stick cooking spray. Recipes high in whey can get very sticky!

    Bursting with berry deliciousness! Give these Blackberry Ricotta Protein Pancakes a try!

    Ingredients

    • 4 large egg whites 132g
    • ½ cup part-skim ricotta 126g
    • ½ cup natural vanilla whey protein 51g
    • 1 tablespoon coconut flour 7g
    • dash of nutmeg optional
    • 1 cup blackberries mashed (144g)

    Instructions

    • Spray your griddle with non-stick cooking spray (or rub with coconut oil) and preheat over a low flame.
    • Beat the egg and ricotta until smooth.
    • Add whey, coconut flour, and nutmeg. Mix well.
    • Fold in mashed blackberries.
    • Wait until the griddle is hot enough (when drops of water sizzle up).
    • Pour some batter on on the griddle, and flip when you see bubbles rising to the top of the pancake.
    • Cook for one to two more minutes.
    • Repeat until you've finished your batter.
    • Make two stacks, and enjoy!

    Notes

    A note about substitutions: Because different types of protein powder cook very differently, I would not recommend protein powders other than whey for this recipe. And keep in mind that whey concentrates tend to cook better than whey isolates.
