Description

Fluffy banana protein pancakes combine fresh bananas with Krusteaz protein pancake mix and a touch of cinnamon spice, for a satisfying, easy breakfast that’s low-fat and low-carb.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium Banana, smashed
  • 1 cup Protein Pancake Mix
  • 2/3 cup Milk 
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup Walnuts, crushed

Instructions

  1. Mash the banana with a fork until smooth and there are no large pieces left.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine protein pancake mix, milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract, bananas and walnuts, and stir with a spatula or whisk to combine.
  3. Heat a small non-stick skillet on medium-high heat and spray with cooking spray or melted butter.
  4. Scoop 1/3 cup of pancake batter and pour into pan slowly. The batter will be thick so you may need to spread with a spoon. 
  5. Griddle pancakes for 1 ¾ -2 minutes per side. Serve with warm maple syrup and additional bananas or walnuts.

Notes

  • To increase this recipe, use 1 banana per cup of pancake mix, and follow the instructions for the liquid ingredients on the box. Add additional nuts and cinnamon to taste.
  • These can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
