Equipment

  • Medium mixing bowl I use a collapsible mixing bowl
  • Fork or whisk
  • Griddle I use a Griddler, but an electric or stovetop griddle works, too.

Ingredients

  • 1 Large, VERY Ripe Banana
  • cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tablespoon MCT Oil optional
  • cup Super Fine Almond Flour
  • 2 Scoops Vanilla Flavoured Whey Protein Powder We use Revolution Nutrition High Whey - Vanilla Cake
  • 1 tablespoon Coconut Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • Nonstick Spray

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl, use a form to mash the banana until it’s as smooth as you can get it.
  • Add almond milk, eggs, and oil - if using. Whisk until smooth.
  • Scatter almond flour, protein powder, coconut flour, and baking powder over the wet ingredients.
  • Give the dry ingredients a little bit of a stir to mix them up, before really incorporating them into the wet ingredients mixture. Once mixed a bit, stir everything together, until smooth.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, spray with nonstick spray.
  • Use a ¼ cup measure to pour batter out into 3 small pancakes. (You can do all 6 at once, if using a larger surface, like my Cuisinart Griddler.)
  • Allow to cook until the underside is nicely golden brown, and small bubbles are breaking at the surface.
  • Carefully flip each pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown on the second side, and JUST cooked through.
  • Note: Overcooking can lead to dry pancakes!
  • If you only did the 3 pancakes to start, use the ¼ cup measure to pour the remaining batter into another 3 pancakes, repeat the cooking process.
  • Serve the banana protein pancakes with your favorite toppings - butter, maple syrup, sugar free syrup, berries, etc - or just plain.
  • Leftover pancakes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple days.

Notes

<p>Note: Due to the WILD variation in nutrition between brands of protein powder, the protein powder has been left OUT of the nutritional info calculations in this recipe.</p>
<p>The nutritional info provided is for everything except the protein powder - be sure to add the needed info - protein, carbs, etc - from your choice of protein powder. The recipe uses 1 scoop / serving of protein powder per serving.</p>
