Chocolate Blueberry Protein Pancakes
Sometimes (though not often!!) I feel like starting my day with something a bit more substantial than a smoothie - usually when I am fighting cravings. Don't fight'em, beat'em...with these insanely delicious and nutritious pancakes, made with chocolate protein powder and just a few simple ingrdients and perfect for a weekend brunch or after a workout!
You don't can use whatever protein powder you have - if it isn't chocolate but you want the chocolate flavour, just add a couple tsp of cacao or cocoa. The same goes for berries, the needn't have to be blueberries, or any for that matter, as delightful as they are!
Whisk together:
2/3 cup of coconut milk
1 mashed banana
2 servings of vegan chocolate protein powder (I used Nutra Organics)
1/2 cup of gluten free, paleo or wholemeal flour (not coconut)
1 tsp baking powder
Heat a pan with a little oil, and spoon in heaped tablespoons of the mixture. Dot several blueberries in each and fry until bubbling before flipping.
Turn out on to a paper towel and serve with extra fresh berries, maple syrup and coconut cream!
