Ingredients
- 1 cup Bob’s Red Mill Protein Pancake Mix
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or butter
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Cooking spray or additional oil for the skillet
Optional Add-ins:
- 1/2 cup blueberries or chocolate chips
- Sliced bananas or nuts for topping
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of Bob’s Red Mill Protein Pancake Mix with 1 cup of milk.
- Add in the large egg, melted coconut oil (or butter), maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract (if using).
- Whisk the mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. If you’re adding blueberries or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter at this stage.
Step 2: Heat the Skillet
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Step 3: Cook the Pancakes
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 4: Serve
- Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve the pancakes warm, topped with your choice of sliced bananas, nuts, maple syrup, or your favorite toppings.
Tips
- For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
- Adjust the thickness of the batter by adding more milk if you prefer thinner pancakes or more pancake mix for thicker ones.
- These pancakes can be made ahead of time and reheated in the toaster or microwave for a quick breakfast option.
Enjoy your delicious and protein-packed pancakes!
