Protein-packed oatmeal banana pancakes with blueberries

Start your day with a delicious and nutritious breakfast by making these protein-packed oatmeal banana pancakes with blueberries. Perfect for those who are looking to fuel their morning with a balanced meal that's high in protein and filled with natural sweetness, these pancakes are both satisfying and easy to prepare.

Ingredients:

1 scoop whey protein powder
30g
5 egg whites
160g
1/4 tsp cinnamon
0.65g
1 banana
100g
2.50 cups blueberries
370g
1/2 cup multi-grain oatmeal
40g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Peel and slice the banana.
- Measure out all other ingredients for easy access.
2. Blend Pancake Batter:
- In a blender or food processor, add 5 egg whites, 1 scoop of whey protein powder, the sliced banana, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and 1/2 cup multi-grain oatmeal. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
3. Heat the Pan:
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. If using a regular skillet, lightly grease with a small amount of cooking spray or oil.
4. Cook the Pancakes:
- Pour or scoop a portion of the batter onto the skillet to form small pancakes (about 3-4 inches in diameter).
- Add a handful of blueberries to each pancake, pressing them slightly into the batter.
5. Flip and Finish Cooking:
- Cook the pancakes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set (about 2-3 minutes). Carefully flip each pancake using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
6. Serve:
- Transfer the pancakes to a plate.
- Top with additional blueberries if desired.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve your protein-packed oatmeal banana pancakes warm, perhaps with a drizzle of honey, maple syrup, or your favorite nut butter for added flavor.

Tips:

- Ensure the bananas are ripe for a naturally sweet flavor that eliminates the need for additional sugar.

- For optimal consistency, blend the oatmeal into a fine powder before mixing it with the other ingredients.

- If you prefer a thicker batter, add a little less egg white initially and gradually incorporate more until you reach the desired consistency.

- Preheat a non-stick skillet on medium heat to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.

- Allow the pancakes to cook until bubbles form around the edges before flipping, ensuring they are cooked through without burning.

- Top the pancakes with fresh blueberries for added texture and a burst of flavor.
