Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted, then cooled slightly)
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups 1:1 gluten free baking flour
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients: Spoon and level the gluten free baking flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt into the wet ingredients. Whisk thoroughly to form a fairly thick batter, which will result in fluffier pancakes.
  3. Heat Skillet: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil spray or butter.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot skillet. Cook until the surface is matte and bubbles form, then flip carefully and cook for an additional minute until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter to make approximately twelve 4-inch pancakes.
  5. Rest Pancakes: Place cooked pancakes on a wire rack to prevent sogginess while you finish cooking the rest.
  6. Serve: Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of Greek yogurt, fresh berries, maple syrup, or favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For fluffier pancakes, do not overmix the batter once dry ingredients are combined; a few lumps are okay.
  • Using a wire rack to cool cooked pancakes prevents them from becoming soggy.
  • You can substitute the milk with any plant-based milk for a dairy-free version.
  • Ensure your protein powder is gluten free to maintain the recipe’s gluten free status.
