My roommate and I have been on a huge protein pancake mix kick, and eaten one every day before work haha. There’s plenty of kinds out there to buy a pre made mix that you just add water to, but it’s simple enough to make up ahead yourself.
Plus with the quarantine you might not find any more mix on the shelves, so you might really have to make your own 🙃
Add water, milk, or milk and an egg for extra protein to this mix and you basically have your own Kodiak Cake. And don’t forget to top with all your favorites!
Side note about the protein though, I would recommend staying away from whey protein powder- it makes them dense and heavy and almost chalky, gross. Also I tested this with egg white protein powder (what I use for my RX bars here) and it was basically like eating an omelette inside of a pancake lol so don’t use that either.
Ingredients:
- 1 C whole wheat flour
- ½ C reg flour (feel free to use all of one or the other though)
- ½ C plant protein (I used Orgain vanilla)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- vanilla *
- milk*
- egg*
Makes about 4 large pancakes using ½ C at a time
Now you make it:
- Combine all dry ingredients and store in an airtight container. You can double or triple this recipe to keep it made up as long as it is stored well
- When ready to make protein pancake mix, just add water or milk 1:1 with the dry mix (milk will make them much fluffier). If desired, add an egg to the mixture and cook as normal. You can also add a few drops of vanilla to the mixture to sweeten it.
- Add in blueberries, chocolate chips, sprinkles or anything else once on the skillet, and top with peanut butter, butter, syrup or whatever your heart desires!!
Enjoy!
