What do you like to eat for breakfast? I tend to like things on the sweet side, so this banana protein pancake recipe is one that hits the spot! If you’re not a total fan of protein powder, there are other alternatives to in place of the protein.
To sweeten these pancakes, I like to use ripe bananas. This adds a natural touch of sweetness as oppose to using processed sugar. For a high protein pancake like these banana pancakes, just simply add more protein powder to the mixture.
Can you reheat these pancakes?
Absolutely! I tend to make a huge batch of this batter and save some for the next day. When I’m ready to make them, I simply just reheat them.
