Equipment

  • measuring utensils
  • blender for mixing batter

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1 banana medium sized
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp baking powder heaping tsp
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup protein powder I use 1up nutrition vanilla or banana caramel- any flavor or brand you like
  • 2 tbsp ground flax
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • optional mix-ins: blueberries, chocolate chips

    blended up pancake batter
  • Heat a pan/griddle to medium high heat. I used our own cooking beef tallow, but any cooking spray will work too.

  • Use a 1/4 cup measuring utensil to add batter to your pan. (can do larger if you'd like, but won't get 10 pancakes).

  • Sprinkle any mix-ins on your pancakes. This is optional.
  • When edges start to look dry or it appears to be easy to get a spatula under the pancake (about 2-3 minutes), flip the pancake. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side appears to be golden.
  • Cool a bit and enjoy! Top with maple syrup, honey, peanut butter- anything!

Notes

Freezer Instructions: let the pancakes cool. Then freeze for 30-60 minutes on a sheet pan- not stacked or touching. Then, transfer them to a gallon or 1/2 gallon freezer bag. Pull out and warm in microwave for a quick breakfast. 
Nutrition information is an estimate. This will depend on type of protein powder, etc.
