Protein Pancakes without Protein Powder

Fluffy high protein pancakes made with simple ingredients like rolled oats, Greek yogurt and milk- no protein powder needed!
Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time10 minutes
Course: Breakfast
Servings: 3

Ingredients

Dry ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Wet ingredients

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk I recommend at least 2% but any will work
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Add all dry ingredients (oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) to a high speed blender or food processor. Blend on high for 30-60 seconds until oats have formed a fine flour.
  • Add wet ingredients (yogurt, milk, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla) and blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
  • Heat a griddle or large frying pan over medium heat. Lightly coat with oil, butter or nonstick spray.
  • Add ¼ cup of batter per pancake to the hot pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until pancakes begin to puff up and the underside is golden brown. Fliip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown. Be sure to wipe out excess pancake mixture from the pan in between patches.

Notes

If you need gluten-free, be sure to buy certified gluten-free oats.
