Ingredients

Dry ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (not instant)
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (about 30g, high-quality brand recommended)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt

Wet ingredients

  • 1 large egg (room temperature works best)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat recommended for fluffiest texture)
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or unsweetened almond milk)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (pure vanilla recommended)

For cooking

  • as needed coconut oil or cooking spray (for the pan)

Instructions 

  • Add oats and protein powder to blender; pulse until fine.
  • Mix dry ingredients in a bowl. Whisk wet ingredients in a separate bowl until smooth.
  • Combine wet and dry, fold until just mixed. Rest for 5-10 minutes.
  • Heat skillet over medium, coat with oil. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake, cook 2-3 mins until bubbles form.
  • Flip and cook 1-2 mins until golden. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately.

Notes

For extra fluffiness, use full-fat Greek yogurt and cook on medium heat.
