Are you looking to add more protein to your diet? This pancake recipe has a whopping 25 grams of protein using NO protein powder! Add optional fruits as toppings (macros not included).
Base Ingredients:
– ¼ cup oats
– ½ cup egg whites
– ¼ cup Greek yogurt
– 1 tsp baking powder
– ½ tsp vanilla
– 1 tbsp coconut flour
– 1 pinch of salt
Optional Add-Ins:
– ¼ cup blueberries
– ¼ cup diced banana
Cooking Instructions:
- Mix your ingredients in a blender until well combined (I use an ⅛ cup of each fruit add-in in the batter, and use the rest whole in the pancake). Adjust consistency to be a normal pancake batter viscosity, using more flour or water accordingly.
- Preheat griddle or skillet.
- Add your remaining optional fruit to the sprayed skillet, along with your batter, forming your pancakes.
- Cook for a few minutes, until set on the bottom and edges and beginning to bubble. Then flip!
- Cook another minute or two before serving warm with optional toppings.
This protein pancake recipe can also be used to make waffles.

Great recipe as I’m not of fan of protein powders! Great flavor and so easy to make. And this is a large helping of pancakes!
Since we don’t care for greek yogurt, can we replace it with plain yogurt? Or is there another option?
Hi Georgina. You can replace the Greek yogurt with regular yogurt. The main difference is that regular yogurt typically has more sugar and less protein per serving than Greek yogurt. We’ll also email you a few non-yogurt options.
Could you tell me what non-yogurt options there are? Thank you!
Hi Tracy! I sent you an email with alternative options. Enjoy 😋

What can I use instead of the coconut flour? My daughter is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts, including coconut. Thank you!
Hi Wendy. You can substitute the coconut flour with 3 tablespoons of regular flour. Please double check the conversion.
