  • 1 mixing bowl large
  • 1 whisk

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 scoop protein powder
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.
  • In another bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

Cooking

  • Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Serving

  • Serve pancakes warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh berries, syrup, or yogurt.

Storage

  • Let pancakes cool completely and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster or microwave before serving.
