Apple Protein Pancakes with Greek Yogurt

Step 1

Add to a bowl Greek yogurt, egg, egg whites, maple syrup (or preferred sweetener), apple cider vinegar (optional), ground cinnamon and vanilla extract. Stir to get a creamy mixture.

Step 2

Sift in oat flour (or any flour of your choice), protein powder and baking powder. Stir to combine. Depending on the protein powder that you are using, your batter may require a bit of milk (see notes*).

Step 3

Stir chopped apple into the protein pancakes batter.

Step 4

Pour one scoop of pancakes batter into a hot and greased pan. Cook your pancakes over medium heat until the underside is golden and bubbles begin to appear on the surface, then flip with a spatula and cook until golden.

Step 5

Add all ingredients (apart from chopped apple) to a blender and process until smooth. Depending on the protein powder that you are using, your batter may require a bit of milk (see notes*).

Step 6

Stir chopped apple into the protein pancakes batter.

Step 7

Pour one scoop of pancakes batter into a hot and greased pan. Cook your pancakes over medium heat until the underside is golden and bubbles begin to appear on the surface, then flip with a spatula and cook until golden.

Step 8

Start by chopping the apple, then transfer to a bowl together with the granulated sweetener and the cinnamon.

Step 9

In the meantime, heat a nonstick pan. When it is hot, add the apple chunks and a splash of milk (about 1 teaspoon). Cook over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the apple chunks have become tender. Make sure that you stir the chunks while they are cooking.

Step 10

Finally, serve your protein pancakes with the caramelized apples as a topping. If desired, you can add some crushed walnuts and a drizzle of maple syrup on top.
