Strawberry Protein Pancakes-Delicious!
Happy Friday Everyone!!!
Over the past few weeks I’ve been experimenting with a few different protein pancake recipes. This one is by far the best!!! I’ve adapted this from everydaybelle.com. The recipe will make 4 really really LARGE pancakes, so I only eat two of them. You’ll see I also have a side of three egg whites scrambled with Mrs. Dash’s southwestern seasoning (delicious!). Thank you Chrissy Schaefer for that tip!
Ingredients:
9 0z of plain non-fat greek yoghurt
1 egg + 1 egg white
~10 stevia drops (optional, but will make the pancakes a lot sweeter without any additional calories)
3/4 cup of whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp of baking soda
200 grams of strawberries
1/4 cup of sugar free maple syrup

Directions:
Mix greek yoghurt with eggs and stevia drops until smooth. In a separate bowl, mix flour and baking soda. Combine dry and wet ingredients and mix well. Add 3/4 of the cut strawberries and save the rest for putting on stop of your pancakes.
I like to use medium heat for my pancakes, which helps avoid burning. After the griddle/pan heats up, spray with Pam (or some other non-stick spray) before putting batter on pan. I use about 1/3 cup of the batter for each pancake, but if you’d like more, smaller pancakes, just use less batter for each pancake (duh right). Wait for pancakes to start to bubble, then flip. I top my pancakes with sugar free maple syrup-so yummy Micah (my husband) almost wanted to try them! Ha! Enjoy!!!
