Protein Pancakes

I have to share this recipe as this is my new favorite breakfast and lunch! It's so good and so healthy!

Protein Pancakes
  • 1/4 cup egg whites (I always add whites from two eggs. That's about 1/4 cup)
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder or regular (organic brown rice protein or whey).
  • 2 tbs vanilla almond milk or skim milk
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tbs flaxseed
  • After above ingredients are mixed together add 1/2 mashed banana
  • Add a handful of fresh or frozen blueberries
This makes 2 - 3 pancakes. Add some sliced strawberries or sugar free jam/jelly if you want them even sweeter.

The recipe is from Tone It Up and can be found here. Their pancakes looks a lot better ;)

You can double the recipe and bring a couple to work for lunch too :)

The combination of protein (powder and eggs) and carbs (banana and berries) is a perfect mix to start off your day. The carb count in these are so low that you can even eat this on a low carb diet and low GI :)

For my Norwegian readers, flax seeds is Fiberhusk (fås på Helsekost). Jeg pleier å ta i en skje med Kruskakli også for å få litt mer fiber i.
