Protein pancakes

This recipe I wanted to share with you, I worked on protein pancakes for awhile.  Trial and error, research, and a lot of creativity made these sooooo amazing I was almost licking my plate clean lol. 


I'm going to call the Chia-Bannana Cakes

I love clean eating and finding new ways to recreate recipes to make them clean and add flavor to my life.  Not to mention I Love to Cook!  This recipe was easy so here it is Fitfam!

Chia-Banana Cakes

For the pancake:
1/4 cup oatmeal (blend first till powder) 
1 small-medium Banana 
1 egg white
2 tbs chia seeds 
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1scoop vanilla protein (I use Dymatize natural vanilla protein powder) (I went on a mission finding clean protein powder but that's another post) 

For the frosting:

1/2 cup non fat unsweetened Greek yogurt
1/4 cup blueberries (or another berry) 
A few drops of Nu-Stevia 

Directions:

Put Banana, egg white, chia seeds, vanilla, protein powder, oatmeal and baking powder in food processor and blend until it's like a batter.  On warm skillet brush with coconut oil place about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake and cook. 

Next put Greek yogurt, berries, and Nu-stevia in food processor blend until smooth.  

When pancakes are done layer the frosting between each and rest on top.  Enjoy!!


Next time I may add or change something's, the key is have fun and be creative with clean ingredients. You never know what goodness will come out. 

Cheers to eating clean and living life to the fullest!
