Fluffy Banana Protein Pancakes with Oats

Craving pancakes, but want a breakfast that actually supports your goals? These fluffy banana protein pancakes need just a handful of ingredients: a ripe banana, Ultra Fine Oats, Liquid Egg Whites and Perfection Whey Cinnamon Roll. Everything goes into the blender and in 15 minutes you have a stack of protein pancakes on the table.

With around 43g of protein per serving, they are ideal after a morning workout or on a slow Sunday. The banana adds the sweetness, so you don't need any sugar. Finish with fresh fruit and a few Choco Drops and breakfast instantly feels like a treat.

HOW TO MAKE PROTEIN PANCAKES WITH BANANA AND OATS

1. Add the banana, Ultra Fine Oats, Perfection Whey Cinnamon Roll, Liquid Egg Whites, milk and baking powder to a blender. Blend until smooth.
2. Let the batter rest for 2 to 3 minutes so it thickens slightly and turns fluffier. Too thick? Add a splash of milk.
3. Heat a frying pan over low to medium heat and lightly grease it with Smart Cooking Spray.
4. Pour small rounds of batter into the pan and cook for about 2 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Stack the pancakes on a plate and scatter the Choco Drops over them while they are still warm, so they melt slightly.
6. Top with strawberries or blueberries. Delicious with a spoonful of yogurt mixed with a scoop of Flavour Powder.

WHAT MAKES THESE PROTEIN PANCAKES SO FLUFFY?

The secret is the combination of protein, oats and baking powder. Liquid Egg Whites give the batter structure and lift, without having to separate eggs. The finely milled Ultra Fine Oats blend in without lumps and give a soft bite. And by letting the batter rest, the baking powder has time to do its job.

• Use a ripe banana with brown spots. It is sweeter and blends more easily.
• Cook over low to medium heat. Protein batter browns quickly, so a pan that is too hot gives you a burnt outside and a raw middle.
• Make small pancakes. They are easier to flip and stay nice and thick.
• Only flip once bubbles appear on top and the edges look dry.
