Ingredients
  

For the Pancakes
  • 1 cup oat flour (or 1 cup rolled oats, blended) Oat flour can be made by blending rolled oats.
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder
  • 1 large ripe banana, mashed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 cup mixed fresh berries (blueberries, raspberries)
  • as needed Coconut oil or butter for cooking
  • to taste Maple syrup and extra berries for serving

Method
 

Pancake Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, and cinnamon. Whisk to combine.
  2. In a separate bowl, mash the banana until smooth. Add the eggs and almond milk, whisking thoroughly.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; a few lumps are okay. Fold in half of the mixed berries.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with coconut oil.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
  6. Flip carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve immediately with maple syrup, remaining fresh berries, and a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra protein.

Notes

Gluten-free oats should be used for a gluten-free option. For a dairy-free version, substitute almond milk and skip Greek yogurt.
