Fluffy Protein Pancakes without Protein Powder are naturally high in protein using wholesome ingredients like eggs, Greek yogurt, and oats—perfect for a healthy, satisfying breakfast.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 medium banana
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Add oats to a blender and blend until a fine flour forms.
  2. Add Greek yogurt, eggs, banana, baking powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the blender. Blend until smooth and thick.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
