Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or flavor of choice)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a blender, add the rolled oats and blend until they form a fine flour.
Add the protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the oat flour and blend for a few seconds until thoroughly mixed.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, Greek yogurt, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the dry ingredients from the blender into the wet ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with coconut oil.
For each mini pancake, pour about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet.
Cook pancakes for about 2 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes or until both sides are golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve the mini pancakes warm with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup on top, if desired.
