πŸ“ Ingredients

πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ Instructions

  1. 1
    In a medium bowl, mash the ripe banana thoroughly with a fork until smooth. The riper the banana, the easier this will be.
  2. 2
    Crack the two large eggs into the bowl with the mashed banana. Whisk vigorously until the banana and eggs are well combined.
  3. 3
    Add the scoop of protein powder to the mixture. Stir well until no dry lumps of powder remain and the batter is thick but pourable. If the batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon of milk (dairy or non-dairy) and stir until desired consistency is reached.
  4. 4
    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
  5. 5
    Pour approximately ΒΌ cup of batter per pancake onto the hot pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set and dry.
  6. 6
    Carefully flip each pancake with a thin spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the second side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. 7
    Remove cooked pancakes from the pan and serve immediately with your favorite toppings. Repeat with any remaining batter.

πŸ’‘ Notes

For best results, use a very ripe banana for sweetness and ease of mashing. Adjust protein powder amount slightly based on its absorbency – some powders may require a little extra liquid. These pancakes are more delicate than traditional ones, so handle with care when flipping. Great with berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
