Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 scoop vanilla protein powder

1 ripe banana

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional for sweetness)

Cooking spray or a little coconut oil for the pan

Fresh fruits (e.g., berries, banana slices) for topping

Greek yogurt or nut butter (optional for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Oats: In a blender or food processor, blend the rolled oats until they reach a fine flour consistency. This will serve as the base for your pancakes.

    Mix Ingredients: In the same blender, add the vanilla protein powder, ripe banana, almond milk, eggs, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and honey (if using). Blend until smooth and well-combined.

      Heat the Pan: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray or coconut oil.

        Cook Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot pan for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles start to form on the surface. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

          Repeat: Continue with the remaining batter, adding more cooking spray or oil to the pan as needed.

            Serve & Enjoy: Stack the pancakes on a plate and top with fresh fruits, a dollop of Greek yogurt or nut butter, and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup if desired.
