You don’t need protein powder for protein pancakes. Greek yogurt and eggs do the job, and blended oats replace the flour. The result is fluffy, filling and around 25 g of protein per serving.

Ingredients

  • 100 g (1 cup) rolled oats
  • 200 g (¾ cup) Greek yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) milk
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp honey and ½ tsp vanilla
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp butter or oil for the pan
  • Berries, to serve

Instructions

  1. Blend the oats into a fine flour.
  2. Add the yogurt, eggs, milk, baking powder, honey, vanilla and salt and blend until smooth. Rest for 5 minutes.
  3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and brush with butter.
  4. Pour 3–4 tbsp of batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles appear and the edges look set, about 2 minutes.
  5. Flip and cook for 1 more minute. Serve with berries.

Tips

  • Keep the heat medium-low: yogurt batter browns faster than regular pancakes.
  • For more protein, use cottage cheese instead of half the yogurt.
  • Pancakes freeze well; reheat in a toaster.
