Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup oats
- 1 heaping scoop of Arbonne vanilla protein powder (or preferred vanilla protein)
- 1 tablespoon almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1 very ripe banana
- 1¼ cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted (plus more for cooking)
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: Combine the oats, vanilla protein powder, ripe banana, unsweetened almond milk, melted coconut oil, almond flour, and baking powder in a blender. Blend until you achieve a smooth batter without lumps, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Heat Pan: Place a skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of coconut oil to lightly grease the surface, helping to prevent the pancakes from sticking and to add flavor.
- Pour Batter: Using a ¼ cup measure, pour the batter onto the heated pan to form individual pancakes, spacing them adequately to allow flipping.
- Cook First Side: Let the pancakes cook for about 5-8 minutes until the edges look set and bubbles form on the surface, with the underside turning golden brown.
- Flip and Cook Second Side: Carefully flip each pancake and cook another 5-8 minutes until the other side is also golden and the pancake is cooked through and fluffy.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of agave syrup, maple syrup, or fresh blueberries for a delicious and wholesome meal.
Notes
- You can substitute Arbonne vanilla protein powder with any vanilla-flavored protein powder you prefer.
- Adjust the almond milk quantity slightly if the batter is too thick or thin to achieve the desired consistency.
- Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and better texture.
- For vegan option, ensure the protein powder is plant-based and use plant-based milk such as almond milk.
- Extra coconut oil can be used to keep pancakes from sticking while cooking.
