Reasons to Love These Pancakes
- Quick & Easy: These are super and easy to make and require very minimal ingredients and equipment.
- High Protein: Each serving of pancakes (2) has a whopping 21 grams of protein. You can’t taste it and these do not have any sort of chalky taste from the protein powder thanks to the Greek yogurt!
Nutritional Benefits
- Protein Powder: In addition to being extra protein, most protein powders are full of essential vitamins! Protein helps you stay fuller longer and is essential for muscle growth and maintaining muscle mass.
- Oat Flour: Oats are extremely nutritious! They are rich in antioxidants and fiber. They are known to also help lower your cholesterol levels.
- Greek Yogurt: Greek yogurt is a good source of protein, improved gut health, and can help boost your metabolism.
Ingredients
- Oat Flour – 3/4 cup of oat flour. I used the Oats Instant Powder by Prozis for a fluffier texture. It is my go-to healthy flour substitute. You can also use the code KATIE10 for 10% off Prozis!
- Protein Powder – 30 grams of vanilla protein powder. I use the Prozis natural vanilla whey isolate. If you want to try out their protein, you can use the code “KATIE10” for 10% off!
- Baking Powder– 1 teaspoon, to make them fluffy.
- Vanilla Extract – 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Egg Whites – 3 tablespoons of liquid egg whites.
- Greek Yogurt – 3/4 cup of plain, nonfat Greek yogurt.
- Salt – Just a pinch!
- Almond Milk – 1/2 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk, or your favorite milk.
- Chocolate Chips – 1/4 cup of of Lily’s sugar free dark chocolate chips. You can use any sugar free chocolate chips, but I prefer these because they are naturally sweetened. The macros below assume this brand.

Pancake Toppings
Here are some of my favorite toppings for these pancakes:
- Sugar free breakfast syrup (either classic or a flavored one, such as chocolate)
- Fresh berries, such as raspberries or blueberries.
- Sliced bananas.
