Oatmeal Protein Pancakes Recipes

QUICK OATMEAL PANCAKES

Steps:

• Place 1 cup milk in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until bubbling, about 2 minutes. Stir in the oats.
• Mix flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Whisk eggs, 2 teaspoons melted butter, and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl; add 1/4 cup milk. Mix oat mixture and egg mixture with flour mixture; stir to combine.
• Heat 2 teaspoons butter on a griddle or skillet over medium heat; pour about 1/3 cup batter into the hot butter. Cook pancakes until bubbles appear on top layer, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook other side until evenly browned, about 5 more minutes.

OATMEAL PROTEIN PANCAKES (NO PROTEIN POWDER!)

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients to a blender and combine until they form a smooth batter. It could take a couple of minutes for the oatmeal to break down and form a smooth batter. For lower power blenders, blend the oats first and then add the remaining ingredients.
• Using a quarter cup measure, pour the batter into a medium high heat pan sprayed with cooking spray and flip once the batter begins to bubble and pop.
• Cook for another 1-2 minutes and serve with your favorite pancake toppings.
• *If you usually like a sweeter pancake batter, consider adding a touch of brown sugar, Stevia, agave, or honey to your batter.

OATMEAL COTTAGE CHEESE PANCAKES (GF)

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Alternatively, add everything into a bowl and use an immersion blender and blend until smooth. If you do not have a blender you can mix it by hand, however the pancakes will not be smooth.
• Lightly coat a large non-stick skillet or griddle with a bit of oil, then heat over medium to medium-high heat. Working in batches, spoon about 2 tablespoons of pancake batter onto the pan for each pancake. Gently and lightly use the back of the spoon to guide the pancake batter so it spreads out into a 3-inch diameter round. Make sure to leave room between pancakes so you can easily flip the pancakes.
• Cook on one side, until the top begins to look set with some bubbles, and the bottom is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes, and cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 2 more minutes.
• Transfer to plates, top with desired toppings, and serve.

OATMEAL PANCAKES

Steps:

• If you'd like to keep the pancakes warm between batches, place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Place the oil, Greek yogurt, milk, 1 1/4 cups oats, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt in a blender.
• Blend until the batter is smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. Continue blending until you don't see any remaining bits of oats.
• Stop the blender, stirring the remaining 3/4 cup oats and any desired mix-ins. Do not blend again. Let the batter sit for 10 minutes while you heat the skillet/griddle and prep any toppings.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly butter or oil the pan if needed (some nonstick pans do not need this).
• Once the skillet is hot, drop the batter by 1/4 cupful into the pan. Let cook gently for 3 to 4 minutes on the first side, until the pancakes look dry at the edges and small bubbles form on top.
• Gently flip, then cook on the other side for 1 to 2 minutes. They should look golden on both sides. If desired, transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet and keep them warm in the oven between batches. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Serve hot with desired toppings.

PROTEIN PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a blender, add eggs, protein powder, baking powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon and bananas. Process until smooth. Batter will be on a runny side.
• Preheat skillet on low-medium heat and spray with cooking spray or add oil. Pour a bit less than 1/4 cup batter, cook until bubbles just start to appear on top, flip and cook for another 10 seconds.
• Serve with yogurt, berries, maple syrup and any of your favorite toppings.
