With my goal of increasing protein and decreasing my amount of sugar intake, I have been searching the internet for foods which will help me achieve my goal.
The recipe I used and adapted is: Buff Dudes: 3 Ingredient Protein Pancakes
This was brilliant for a low carb, low sugar, high protein breakfast, and it was also super quick to make.
Ingredients:
- 2 Eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (The recipe calls for fat-free milk, but I don’t have any so I used full fat)
- 1 Scoop whey protein (I used chocolate peanut butter whey protein)
- 1 tsp Crunchy peanut butter (easy on how much you use, it is a high-calorie food)
- 1 Banana chopped up
Method:
- Crack 2 eggs into a Pyrex jar
- Add 1/2 cup milk
- Add the whey protein
- If you like thicker pancakes which are more of a flapjack consistency, add 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour or pancake flour if you have any
- Whisk everything together so there are no lumps
- Greece the pan with butter or oil
- On medium heat add the blob of the mixture
- When it starts bubbling, you can turn over the pancake
- Serve with a little peanut butter and topped off with the chopped bananas
