Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Premier Protein Shake
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon butter, for greasing
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, Premier Protein Shake, and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the microwave or on the stove, then let it cool slightly. Add the melted butter to the wet ingredients, whisking continuously.
Pour the wet mixture into the well of the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. The batter may have some lumps, which is fine; be careful not to overmix.
Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the pan with 1 tablespoon of butter.
For each pancake, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Carefully flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan if necessary.
Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
