Equipment
Ingredients
2-ingredient pancakes:
- 4 large egg whites 132g
- ⅓ cup vanilla pea protein blend 33g
Sugar free chocolate syrup:
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil warmed to liquid, 14g
- 1 tablespoon cacao powder 5.6g
- 1 packet stevia
Instructions
- Preheat your griddle over a low-medium flame.
- Beat the egg whites with protein powder until smooth and fluffy.
- Wait until the griddle is hot enough (when drops of water sizzle up).
- Pour some batter 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 syrup in a small bowl.
- Stack pancakes, and enjoy with syrup!
Notes
Whey protein WILL NOT WORK in this recipe. Using whey will give you an eggy crepe, not a fluffy pancake.
I wouldn't recommend other types of protein powder here. Use a pea protein blend only.
Cocoa powder will work in place of the cacao powder.
I haven't try this recipe with flax egg to make vegan pancakes.
Adding berries, chopped nuts, and/or sugar free chocolate chips to the pancake batter or as toppings would be great!
