Ingredients
1 egg
4 tbsp milk (dairy or unsweetened plant-based)
1 scoop protein powder (vegan or whey – vegan works best for texture)
2 tbsp flour (whole wheat or oat)
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp olive oil or coconut oil (plus extra for pan)
Dash of cinnamon
Instructions
In a bowl, whisk the egg and milk together.
Add in the protein powder, flour, baking powder, oil, and cinnamon. Stir until just combined — don’t overmix! Add more milk if mixture seems too thick.
Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat and coat with a little oil.
Pour in the batter and cook for 2–3 minutes or until bubbles form and edges start to set.
Carefully flip and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side.
Note: If using whey protein, be cautious not to overcook — it can get dry.Serve warm with your favorite toppings like Greek yogurt, nut butter, berries, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
Topping Ideas:
Sliced banana + almond butter
Coconut yogurt + chia jam
Blueberries + a sprinkle of hemp seeds
Maple drizzle + cinnamon apples
