Oh my! A recipe: Healthy Peanut Butter Banana Pancakes

I have struck gold- according to my taste buds at least. Saturdays I have Muay Thai training @11am, so it is no surprise I found myself in need of some serious sustenance this beautiful afternoon. Protein? Yes.. Peanut Butter? A must.. Let’s make it chewable.. Pancakes? YES.

Now, I’m not going to be one of those bloggers that writes a novel before you get to the good stuff so here it is:

Heathy Banana Peanut Butter Protein Pancakes:

• 1c. Gluten Free Oatmeal, ground (or other GF flour)
• 4 Tbsp Egg Whites
• 1 Tbsp Almond Butter (or Peanut butter if your want to get really PB crazy)
• 1 Banana, sliced
• 1/4 tsp Vanilla
• 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
• 1/2 – 1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
• Stevia to taste
• Almond Milk to consistency
• Low sodium Better N’ Peanut Butter or Natural Peanut Butter

Directions:

1. Mix all ingredients, except almond butter and PB together. You can choose to leave your bananas chunky or puree them.
2. Slowly add almond butter until batter has a soup-like consistency
3. Heat 1-2 Tbsp olive oil in a frying pan. Once hot, turn to medium heat
4. Pour batter into pan to make roughly 5″ diameter pancakes
5. When pancakes start to bubble, flip and let cook for 2-3 more min
6. Top with peanut butter. I used an icing bag, but for those who are without, a knife will do.
7. Serve with a Peanut Butter Mocha Protein Shake and your life will be complete 🙂

Enjoy!
