Banana protein pancakes are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They are made with simple ingredients and are packed with protein, making them the perfect breakfast or post-workout meal. Here’s how you can make your own banana protein pancakes at home.

Ingredients:

1 banana
140g
2 eggs
100g
1/4 tsp baking powder
1.25g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4.20g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Peel the banana and place it in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Crack the eggs and add them to the bowl with the banana.

2. Mash and Mix:
- Use a fork or potato masher to mash the banana until smooth.
- Add the eggs to the mashed banana and whisk together until well combined.
3. Add Baking Powder and Vanilla:
- Sprinkle the baking powder into the banana-egg mixture.
- Add the vanilla extract.
- Stir until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
4. Preheat the Pan:
- Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Lightly grease the pan with a small amount of cooking spray or a dab of oil.
5. Cook the Pancakes:
- Once the pan is heated, pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the pan for each pancake.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set.
- Flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Serve:
- Remove the pancakes from the pan and place them on a plate.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, honey, maple syrup, or yogurt.

Tips:

- For smoother batter, blend all the ingredients in a blender until well combined.

- Use a non-stick skillet or add a little oil or butter to the pan to prevent the pancakes from sticking.

- Cook the pancakes on medium-low heat to ensure they cook through without burning.

- Wait until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake before flipping it to ensure even cooking.

- Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for extra flavor.

Enjoy your delicious banana protein pancakes! They are perfect on their own or topped with fresh fruits, nuts, or a drizzle of honey. This simple and nutritious recipe is sure to become a favorite in your household.
