  • 1 cup + 2 tablespoons of soy milk (highest in protein)
  • 1 tablespoon of maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 cup of all-purpose flour
  • 6 tablespoons of vegan vanilla protein powder (2 scoops)

Utensils You Will Need:


Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix together 1 tbsp of ground flaxseed and 2 tbsps of water to create a flax egg.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the banana and whisk together the plant-based milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and flax egg until well combined.
  3. Add in the all-purpose flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to over mix, as this can result in dense pancakes.
  4. Preheat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
  5. Pour ¼ cup of the pancake batter onto the preheated skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover them with another plate or foil to keep them warm. 
  6. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil or cooking spray as needed to prevent sticking.
  7. Serve the pancakes immediately with maple syrup, fresh fruit, vegan butter, or any of your favorite toppings!
