Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten-free oat flour
- 1 scoop Protein powder (unflavored or vanilla)
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 Eggs
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 0.5 cup Blueberries (optional)
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs, then add almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Whisk to combine.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. The batter should be thick but pourable.
If using blueberries, fold them gently into the batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with your choice of toppings like fresh fruit, more maple syrup, or nut butter.
