Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup rolled oats 80 g
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt 120 g
  • 1/2 cup milk 120 ml
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey 15 ml
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter or oil 14 g
  • Fresh berries
  • Banana slices
  • Greek yogurt
  • Nut butter

Instructions
 

  • Blend dry ingredients:

    Place rolled oats, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt into a blender. Process until the oats become a fine powder.
  • Mix wet ingredients:

    Add eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Blend until the mixture is smooth and thick.
  • Rest the batter:

    Allow the batter to sit for 3–5 minutes so the oats can hydrate.
  • Preheat greased pan:

    Set a nonstick pan over medium-low heat and apply a light coating of grease.
  • Cook first side:

    Drop small rounds of batter onto the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles appear and the edges look firm.
  • Flip and finish:

    Carefully flip each pancake and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.
  • Serve with toppings:

    Serve at once with desired toppings: fresh berries, banana slices, Greek yogurt, nut butter, maple syrup, or chopped nuts.
