Grace Charlotte Fitness: Recipe: Low carb protein pancakes

It's PANCAKE DAY! Yes, it is a large deal.

As whether I even need an excuse to make these super rapid and easy protein pancakes though...

These healthy, guilt free pancakes are perfect for those who want to up their protein intake or are on a low carb diet. They're also gluten free and they taste pretty good too. This recipe makes a batch of about 6 pancakes, depending on what size you make them.

Ingredients:

• 2x eggs
• 1x scoop whey protein (I use PHD Nutrition's Diet Whey in Vanilla Creme flavour)
• A splash of your choice of milk (I use unsweetened almond milk)
• Optional additionals: chocolate chips, raisins, cinnamon, berries etc.
• Coconut oil (to cook)
• Toppings of your choice

Method:

• Blend the eggs with the whey powder and then add in the milk until it is the consistency of standard pancake mix
• Stir in any optional additionals
• Heat a small amount of coconut oil in a non stick pan and pour in the mixture (the size of a scotch pancake)
• Cook the pancake on a low heat for a minute, then flip, and cook for a further minute.
• That's it!

Stack them up and load them with your favourite toppings. For mine, I added Clark's Choccy Desert Topping and a few fresh raspberries. Or, try peanut butter, honey or Greek yogurt - anyleang!)
