Daylight saving time has ended last weekend, and autumn has long since made its entrance. And what could be more delightful than having pancakes for breakfast on a rainy and cold Sunday. Easy to prepare and also a feast for the eyes.
Ingredients for protein pancakes
These pancakes are made regularly at our home, and they are so delicious! By using whole wheat or spelt flour, you make them healthier than the original version. Furthermore, I don’t use refined sugars and unnecessary fats. The fruit compote completes the picture, so it’s definitely a tip to serve with it! Ginger and cinnamon are also two health boosters and give your immune system a boost! So, take full advantage of these two healthy powerhouses during this period!
- 250g whole wheat or spelt flour
- 500ml (plant-based) milk
- 2 tsp ginger juice
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 generous dash of olive oil
- 1 egg white
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- for the fruit compote: 1/2 apple (peeled if desired), 2 handfuls (can be frozen) raspberries, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp ginger, and 1 tbsp maple syrup, stevia, or another sweetener of choice.
Preparation of protein pancakes
- Add all the ingredients except the milk, for the batter, into a mixing bowl.
- Add a little milk at a time and mix until you have a smooth batter. Adjust the thickness of the batter according to your preference.
- Cut the apple into small cubes and put it together with the raspberries in a saucepan. Warm them up slowly (with a spoonful of honey or agave syrup if desired.)
- Let it simmer slowly for 15 minutes over low heat, but be sure not to let it boil. You can always reheat the compote when the pancakes are ready.
- A ladle helps you determine the amount of batter for the pancakes.
- Make sure the pan gets hot first. (not too hot!)
- Cook the pancakes over fairly low heat to get them nicely golden brown.
- Pour the batter into the pan. Do not flatten the pancakes. 1/3 to a full ladle makes one pancake.
- When the batter is almost cooked on the top side, flip it over.
- Cook both sides, and then the pancake is ready!
- Keep them warm in a preheated oven (between two plates). Enjoy
