Shouts of glee! I finally succeeded in making my first
protein pancake. But, when I commit, I go overboard. So not only did I make a
regular protein pancake, I made a SUPER protein pancake.
Look at this beauty in the pan! So nice and thick--almost perfectly browned.
I decided to add my RTD 51 chocolate peanut butter protein shake, which failed in taste
on its own due to the artificial flavor, to add some peanut buttery
deliciousness to my pancake! And, it worked fabulously creating a thick and
golden brown protein pancake. Not only did I add this extra, but I also created
maple protein frosting! Here is how to make this super special protein pancake!
Recipe
Choc PB Protein
Pancake
1 Scoop Protein Powder (I used a packet of Tara’s Whey)
Approx. ¼ cup egg whites
About ½ cup of choc peanut butter protein shake (or really
any flavor). I used this instead of milk or flavoring. This is in liquid form.
A pinch of baking powder
Some cinnamon if desired
I whisk it all together and pop it in the pan on the stove.
Then, when it starts to bubble and the other bottom side is brown, flip it.
Cook through and then it’s time for your frosting
Maple Protein
Frosting
½ cup maple syrup (or as much as desired)
½ packet protein powder
Mix these two really well. Pop the mixture in the microwave
and let it go until it begins to bubble or is nice and hot. Pour it on your
pancake.
This was absolutely delicious. These flavors created such a
perfect compliment, and I was shocked at how hearty my pancake was. This meal
has about a grand total of almost 40 grams of protein. WOWZA! It came out nice and
crispy also. I will be having yet another for dinner tonight—perfect to satisfy
the sweet tooth! Maybe I’ll add some strawberries next time and extra vanilla
liquid protein shake. Hmmm…Or even thicken it with Greek Yogurt? Or....add the
maple to the actual pancake. The possibilities are endless!
