One of my aunts once told me you could combine bananas and eggs to make simple pancakes and I don’t know what took me so long to put it to the test… because they actually turned out so incredible! Only 4 simple ingredients, plus 2 more for the creamy filling, topped with some walnuts and maple syrup… so divine! Let’s get into it.
Simple & High Protein Banana Pancakes
(full recipe and grocery list below)
Ingredients:
3 bananas
pasture raised eggs
0% greek yogurt (this is the one I like)
vanilla isolate protein (BeWell) or vegan vanilla protein
vanilla extract
maple syrup
cinnamon
walnuts
Instructions:
Add 3 bananas to a mixing bowl use a fork to mash.
Add in 4 eggs (24g protein), 2 tsp vanilla extract and a lot of cinnamon.
Mix together well, it’s okay if there are some banana chunks.
Grease a skillet with olive oil spray and add batter (about 1/4 cup per serving). Cook each side on medium-low heat until the edges start to crisp, then flip. Cook until golden-brown and firm.
Make all pancakes until batter is done (should make 10 pancakes)
Make your high protein cream: combine 3/4 cup greek yogurt (17g protein) with 3/4 scoop of vanilla isolate protein (18g protein).
Stack 4 pancakes (~10G protein) with half of the yogurt mix in between (17G protein). Add some more of the high protein cream on top.
I made 2 stacks like this for my husband and I and saved 2 extra pancakes for later!
Roughly chop a few walnuts and add on top with 1/2 tbsp maple syrup.
Enjoy!
One stack of pancakes with the entire yogurt mix has ~27g protein! I hope this recipe brings you joy and fuels your morning.
