The best Banana Protein Pancakes recipe
What do you like having for breakfast? Sweet or savory? I tend to lean more towards sweet so this Banana Protein pancake recipe is one I make quite often. My kids can’t tell that I add protein to pancakes sometimes which is a plus. If you aren’t a protein fan, you can use something else in place of the protein. Whole wheat flour or Oat flour will work just fine.
Are homemade pancakes healthy
Depending on how you make your pancakes will determine how healthy they are. If you use whole grain or whole wheat flour which has more fiber and more filling than white flour then you have increased your odds right there. To sweeten your pancakes, instead of using sugar, use ripe bananas instead. For a high protein pancake like this banana protein, pancake recipe add some more protein to the mix. Most homemade pancaked are much healthier than most pancakes served at restaurants.
Can you reheat protein pancakes
I make a huge batch of this banana protein pancake and save some for the next day. When ready for pancakes, I simply reheat them. Usually, i make huge batches of protein pancakes or waffles and reheat them. It is very safe to reheat your protein pancakes.

Hello
The baking Powder is Soda ? Bicarbonato de sodio?

Baking powder is different from bicarbonate soda. We used baking powder not baking sode

I made these for lunch today, and they turned out very tasty! I didn’t have any vanilla flavored protein powder, so I used a scoop of unflavored protein powder, and added 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract and 1 Tbsp monkfruit sweetener. I didn’t read the instructions carefully enough and ended up blending everything together at once, but they still turned out great! Very light, fluffy, kind of spongy but not in a bad way. I bet if I followed the instructions they would be even better, haha. Will definitely make again!
Rena says
You can always get away with blending everything up for muffing. I love using monk fruit! Thanks for the feedback.

Johan Austin says
It is horrible and it is not fluffy at all and sticks to your gums. Stays raw, burns very quickly and you can not flip them at all. They are flat as paper. I do not recommend them at all.
Rena says
Hi Johan. I am sorry this didn’t work for you. We didn’t experience that. What type of protein did you use? It sometimes makes a huge difference.
Ankeen says
It’s absolutely delicious but unfortunately it didn’t work for me. It didn’t turn out fluffy or thick as the picture. I followed the recipe as per instructions. I used banana strawberry flavor protein though and turned out so yummy . I’m not sure what I could have done wrong. I will definitely give it another try until it works
Danielle says
Add flower to table spoons or oat flower or almond mill to that with this. I did the same as you and it messed it up real bad. Along with this add flower always of your choice. Try again !! 🙂
Danielle says
2 table spoon of any flower to this recipe
Rena says
Thank you Danielle
