Makes one serving.

Calories: 243kcal
Ingredients
Pancakes:
- 4 large egg whites 132g
- ⅓ cup vanilla pea protein blend 33g
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon 0.35g
Icing:
- 2 tablespoons natural vanilla whey protein 11g
- 1-2 tablespoons filtered water 15-30ml
- a dash of ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your griddle over a low flame.
- Beat the egg whites, protein powder, cinnamon, and True Yacon until smooth and fluffy.
- Wait until the griddle is hot enough (when drops of water sizzle up).
- Pour some batter on on the griddle (smaller pancakes flip more easily). These pancakes don’t bubble as much as other recipes, but they fluff up. Flip after a couple of minutes.
- Cook for another couple of minutes on the other side.
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you’ve finished your batter.
- Mix ingredients for icing in a small bowl, starting with 1 tablespoon of water. Add water by the teaspoon as needed to make an icing consistency.
- Stack the pancakes, top with icing, and enjoy!!
Notes
A note about substitutions: I would not try substituting whey or casein protein powders in this recipe. Other vegan proteins may work, but they probably won't be as fluffy or tasty.
