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:
Instructions:
- Peel and slice the banana.
- Measure out all other ingredients for easy access.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Transfer the pancakes to a plate.
- Top with additional blueberries if desired.
- 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.
