Protein Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1 banana
• 75g oats
• 3 large eggs
• 2 tbsp milk (dairy, soya, oat or nut milks all work)
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• pinch of cinnamon
• 2 tbsp protein powder (whey, pea or whatever your preference)
• Coconut oil, or a flavourless oil, for frying
• Nut butter, maple syrup and berries or sliced banana to serve

Method

1. Whizz the banana, oats, eggs, milk, baking powder, cinnamon and protein powder in a blender for 1-2 mins until smooth. Check the oats have broken down, if not, blend for another minute.
2. Heat a drizzle of oil in a pan. Pour or ladle in 2-3 rounds of batter, leaving a little space between each to spread. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until bubbles start to appear on the surface and the underside is golden. Flip over and cook for another minute until cooked through. Transfer to a warmed oven and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve in stacks with nut butter, maple syrup and fruit.
