Try these super yummy and nutritious apple cinnamon protein pancakes, a fun twist that's easy to make! If you’re looking for a gluten-free, healthier/ more nutritious pancake, I highly recommend these!! You could substitute the apples out for other fruit as well including berries or even a bit more banana.

Apple Cinnamon Protein Pancakes

Instructions

1
Mash the bananas in a large bowl and then whisk in the eggs.
2
Stir in the protein powder, flaxseed, almond milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and apple. Stir until fully mixed together. If batter seems a bit too thick, add more almond milk, 1 tablespoon at a time.
3
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium LOW heat and grease with cooking spray or coconut oil. Pour the batter onto the skillet ~1/2 cup at a time and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side. Flip gently and cook for an additional 6 minutes on the other side.
4
Repeat with all of the batter.
5
Top your pancakes with chopped apple, chopped buts, and a bit of maple syrup/ agave.
6
ENJOY!! :)

Notes

1
These are NOT like normal pancakes. The consistency is a bit denser and therefore they NEED to be cooked at a lower temperature for a longer amount of time than your average pancakes. If you try and cook them on a high heat for a quicker time, they’re fall apart a bit. Additionally, they don't hold together quite as well so be careful when you're flipping them.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Dice Apples Small for Even Distribution 🍎
    Cut your apples into small, uniform pieces (about ¼ inch) so they cook evenly and distribute throughout each pancake without creating dense spots.
  • Let Batter Rest Before Cooking ⏱️
    Allow your mixed batter to sit for 5 minutes before cooking—this helps the ground flaxseed absorb liquid and creates fluffier, more cohesive pancakes.
  • Toast Spices Beforehand for Depth 🌟
    Lightly bloom your cinnamon and nutmeg in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the batter to intensify their warm flavors and eliminate any raw spice taste.
  • Use Medium-Low Heat for Protein Pancakes 🔥
    Protein powder requires gentler heat than traditional pancakes; cook on medium-low to prevent the outside from browning too quickly before the inside sets, ensuring even cooking.
  • Add Spiced Apples on Top After Flipping 🥄
    Reserve some diced apples with cinnamon to sprinkle on the cooked side before flipping—this creates caramelized pockets of flavor that won't sink to the bottom.
