4-Ingredient Protein Pancakes

makes 3 small pancakes

INGREDIENTS

1/2 banana

1 egg

~2 scoops protein powder (scoop size depends on powder; I use about 11 g powder)

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

dash of salt

coconut oil

toppings: blueberry sauce, cinnamon, nut butter, fruit (low-fodmap include kiwi, strawberries, and melon)

METHOD

In a blender, place banana, egg, protein powder, cinnamon, and salt and blend until smooth (or leave a little chunky if that’s your thing); you can also forego the blender and mash the banana in a bowl and whisk in the other ingredients.

Heat up enough coconut oil in a large pan to evenly coat the bottom. Once oil is heated, pour in the batter (you can make 2 or 3 pancakes) and let it cook for 3-4 minutes or until the bottom of the pancake easily lifts up from the pan. Flip and then cook the other side.

Top with blueberry sauce (heat up frozen/fresh blueberries with a splash of lemon juice in a pot), cinnamon, nut butter, and fruit!
