Often there is the misconception that ‘healthy’ food is often not really tasty. The opposite is true because you can make healthy dishes very tasty and very tasty dishes very healthy. How about a healthy protein pancake? A protein pancake that gives you extra energy and is a good basis for the start of your day.
Protein Pancake
Protein is also called protein and is mainly found in foods such as red meat, chicken, fish, eggs, and various types of dairy. Protein helps with the maintenance and renewal of muscle tissue. You need protein when your body is developing and you exercise regularly. In addition, protein contributes to better resistance.
- Protein pancakes do not contain ingredients that cause your body to produce fat-storing hormones;
- Protein promotes your metabolism;
- Protein suppresses your hunger, giving you a feeling of being ‘full’.
Protein Pancake Ingredients
- 2 egg whites
- Splash of (soy/oat) milk
- 1 mashed banana
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- A bit of coconut oil
Preparation Method
Put the whites of 2 fresh eggs in a bowl. Peel the banana and put it in a food processor, grind it until you have a banana puree. Add the egg white, milk, cinnamon, and banana puree together and make sure you mix the ingredients well. Heat a bit of coconut oil in the frying pan and pour in the batter. Done!

Buying Protein Pancakes
At Body and Fitshop, you have (just like at Albert Heijn) a pancake mix package where you only need to add a little milk or water and you’re ready to make the pancakes.
All you need to add to this mix is water. This mix contains 6 different proteins:
- Whey protein isolate, strengthens the muscles;
- Whey protein hydrolysate, ensures fast processing;
- Whey protein concentrate, contains easily absorbable proteins;
- Egg white, is a healthy organic protein;
- Caseinate, casein protein is absorbed more slowly by the body but therefore ensures fat-free muscles;
- Micellar casein, works long in the body and protects your muscles.
With this, you can make super quick and easy healthy protein-rich pancakes!
