- Protein powder - Only pea protein blends work well in this recipe. Whey protein is not recommended.
Recipe Variations:
Chocolate chip protein pancakes - Mix in sugar free dark chocolate chips for extra sweetness.
Peanut butter banana protein pancakes - Add chunks of ripe bananas to the batter and on top when serving.
Peanut butter and jelly protein pancakes - Add fresh raspberries (or other berries) to the pancake batter and on top when serving.
Flavor boost - Add ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract or a low alcohol baking vanilla for a boost in flavor.
