Notes
Expert Tips
- Use a protein powder that you like the taste of because it will make a difference in the end product!
- You can easily replace oat flour with regular flour if it's what you have on hand.
- I do suggest using egg whites instead of a whole egg. When I tested the recipe using whole eggs it didn't turn out as fluffy.
- Whisk the egg whites before adding the other ingredients.
- Careful not to over-mix, mix the dry ingredients until they're just combined to avoid a tough pancake.
- If you have more time, you can bake these protein pancake bowls in the oven at 350℉ (177°C) for 30-35 minutes until cooked through.
- Refrigerator - If you want to meal prep these protein pancake bowls, you can store them in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
