Post-Workout Protein Pancakes

Let’s face it – chicken breasts can get old.  And dry. And boring.  Recently, I was fooling around in the kitchen and formulated a great– simple and quick!– recipe for some protein pancakes.  They are yummy, and they are ideal for post-workout because of the whey protein and oats.  Here is the recipe, let me know what you think! :)

Mix the following in a large bowl or mix in blender:

2/3 cup liquid egg whites
2/3 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
2 scoops vanilla whey protein powder
2/3 cup dry old-fashioned oatmeal
1/4 cup almond flour
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
Dash of nutmeg
(Optional- dash of Pumpkin Pie spice)
This is a great base recipe, but you can add other items as you wish, like blueberries, 1/4 cup pumpkin or 2TB peanut butter too

Blend or mix until smooth.  Spray an omelet pan with PAM and put on medium heat.
Pour batter into pan and cook as one BIG pancake.  Makes 2 large pancakes (2 servings).
Optional: add 2 tbsp sugar-free maple syrup and eat!  YUM!
