Food is quickly becoming one of my favorite subjects to photograph. Lately, I can’t get enough. I’ve been photographing almost everything I cook, even simple endeavours like pancakes.

These particular pancakes are some of my favorite to make because they are quick, flour free and super good for you. Take a look, jot down the recipe and enjoy!

These pancakes are packed with protein.

Made with nutrient dense ingredients like flax meal, hemp protein powder & chia seeds.

Flavor comes from ingredients like a ripe banana, cinnamon and vanilla.

The Mighty Protein Pancake

Ingredients:

1 ripe banana
2 eggs (1 whole egg + 1 egg white)
1 T. Bob’s Redmill Hemp Protien Powder
2 tsp. flax meal
2 tsp. chia seeds
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. coconut oil (to grease your skillet)
salt (optional)

Directions:

Mash ripe banana in mixing bowl. I do this with a fork, since the banana is ripe it should be quick and easy. It’s okay to leave some lumps.
Add the eggs to your mixing bowl. I like to use 1 full egg + 1 egg white. You can easily do 2 full eggs, 2 egg whites or even just 1 egg.
Add the remaining ingredients- hemp powder, flax meal, chia seed, cinnamon, vanilla. Mix until combined.
Grease your skillet with coconut oil and put it on a low heat.
Add your mix to your greased skillet. You can add all of your batter to make a giant pancake or spoon it out to make silver dollar sized pancakes. I like to make mine in a small omelette sized skillet- resulting in a giant pancake.
Cover your skillet for about 3-5 minutes as the pancake cooks. Flip half way through and continue cooking for another minute.
Remove pancake from skillet and top any way you like! I top mine with berries as a healthier alternative to syrup.
ENJOY!
