Dry Ingredients
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter powder
Wet Ingredients
- 2 medium egg whites (approx. 1/4 cup)
- 1/2 medium banana, mashed
- Mix egg whites and protein powder: In a mixing bowl, whisk the 2 medium egg whites with 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder until well combined and smooth.
- Add mashed banana: Stir in the 1/2 mashed medium banana to the egg white and protein mixture until the batter is smooth and evenly blended.
- Add peanut butter powder: Incorporate 1 tablespoon of peanut butter powder into the batter and stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Cook the pancakes: Heat a skillet over medium heat and pour about 1/4 of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form and edges look set, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
Notes
- You can substitute peanut butter powder with regular peanut butter, but adjust liquid content accordingly.
- Ensure the skillet is preheated to prevent sticking.
- Use a non-stick pan or lightly grease the skillet for best results.
- This recipe makes about 2 servings (2-4 pancakes depending on size).
- For extra sweetness, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
