Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (dairy or nut-free alternative)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix the milk, vanilla extract, and egg until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing as this can make the pancakes tough.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of unsalted butter or oil to coat the surface.
Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings like syrup, fresh fruit, or yogurt.
