Homemade Protein Pancakes Recipe You'll Love

Some mornings, I wake up craving something that feels indulgent but doesn’t leave me in a food coma before 10 a.m. That’s where these homemade protein pancakes come in. They’re fluffy, filling, and secretly packed with goodness. When I say goodness, I mean the kind that actually keeps you going instead of sending you straight back to bed. Over the years, I’ve tested my fair share of protein pancakes recipes, and let me tell you, not all are created equal. Some taste like cardboard, others fall apart in the pan. But this recipe checks all the boxes. It’s simple enough for busy mornings yet tasty enough to make you feel like you treated yourself. Think Easy Protein Pancakes that don’t skimp on flavor, with the option to go full-on Keto Protein Pancakes or keep them as classic High Protein Pancakes. What I love most is how versatile they are. Want Oatmeal Protein Pancakes with that nutty chew? Done. Craving Fluffy Protein Pancakes that rise beautifully on the griddle? You got it. Once you try them, you might wonder why you ever settled for plain ones.

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 large eggs

  • 200 g low-fat quark or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cooking spray or a little butter for the pan

Instructions

  1. Mash the bananas in a large bowl until smooth.
  2. Whisk in the eggs, yogurt, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Stir in the oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to form a thick batter.
  4. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes so the oats soften.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with spray or butter.
  6. Spoon small amounts of batter into the pan and cook until bubbles form on top, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  7. Serve warm with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or your favorite toppings.
