Gluten-Free Protein Pancakes
Strawberries on the Side and Ready to Eat!
Pancakes are one of my favorite breakfast items to make and I have been enjoying whipping up various creations over the past few weekends. Since it is important to have a balanced breakfast with protein and complex carbohydrates, I tried adding protein powder into my most recent pancake recipe and this turned out delicious!
In addition to protein and carbohydrates, I like to incorporate healthy fats, such as coconut oil, into my breakfast for added nutrition and energy. To reap the natural health benefits of coconut oil, it’s important to remember to choose an unrefined coconut oil.
Since I have Celiac Disease, I had to modify this recipe to make these pancakes gluten free. In my opinion, I don’t taste a difference with using gluten free flour and the coconut oil helps tremendously with keeping the pancakes moist and fluffy.
Here’s what you’ll need –
Ingredients
1 1/3 cup gluten free flour
1 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. Himalayan sea salt
1 scoop protein powder, I used a vanilla flavor
2 eggs
½ cup almond milk
1 tbs. coconut oil, melted
1 tsp. vanilla extract, gluten-free
Directions
Feel free to add in your favorite fruit to this recipe – blueberries or bananas would be delicious! I sliced up strawberries for the side to eat with my pancakes.
