Fluffy Protein Pancake Mix
Elevate your breakfast with this homemade vegan protein pancake mix. This mix contains only 5 ingredients and is packed with 41.5 grams of protein per serving.
Ingredients
- 5 cups Oat flour
- 5 scoops Protein powder (160 grams)
- 5 tablespoons Sugar
- 5 tablespoons Baking Powder
- 1-¼ teaspoon Salt
To make pancakes:
- 1-⅓ cup pancake mix
- 1 cup Soy milk
- 1 Tablespoon ground flaxseeds
- 2.5 tablespoons water
Instructions
- To make your own oat flour, take the oats and place them in a high-speed blender. Blend until they become a fine powder.
- Combine your oat flour, protein powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. If not using right away, store in a large jar or container until ready to use.
To cook pancakes:
- Make your flax egg by placing flax meal and water in a small container. Let sit for 10 minutes.
- Mix the flax egg, pancake mix, and milk in a large bowl using a spatula. Mix well but be careful not to over mix. If the mixture is thicker than you prefer, add additional ¼ cup water if needed.
- Let the mix rest for 10 minutes and while resting preheat a cast iron skillet or nonstick pan on medium heat.
- Lightly coat your pan with oil. Add the batter to the pain in ⅓ cup scoops. Cook for about 4-5 minutes (until the tops have bubbles and start to appear dry), then flip and cook another 4 minutes until brown.
- Place on a cooking rack or plate and cook the remainder of your pancakes. Serve with fruit, syrup or toppings of choice.
Notes
- If you do not have oat flour, take the same amount of oats and blend into a fine powder to make your own oat flour.
- Do not over mix the batter, overmixing results in a dense (less fluffy) pancake.
- Feel free to add extras to the batter. Examples include 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ½ cup berries, banana, nuts or chocolate chips.
- Each batch makes about 5 medium size pancakes.
