Make breakfast the best meal of the day with these banana bread pancakes! Packed with 25+ grams of plant protein, they’re the perfect fuel for before or after a workout.
Breakfast is by far my favorite meal of the day. Many days I go to bed already excited to wake up and eat my first meal. This is especially true when I know I’m having pancakes in the morning. There’s just nothing better than a nice fluffy stack of pancakes on a Sunday morning.
As much as I love pancakes, I know that it’s probably not a great idea to be eating 1000+ calorie stacks from IHOP every day. That’s where protein pancakes come in. Using my favorite protein powder from LIV Body, I can make nutritious, protein-packed pancakes in so many fun flavors! Lately, my favorite variation has been this banana bread protein pancakes recipe. It’s vegan, gluten-free, and made without refined sugar, yet somehow tastes exactly like a slice of freshly baked banana bread!
If you’re looking for a delicious meal to fuel your workouts, look no further. Make yourself some of these pancakes and get in more than 25g of protein first thing in the morning! I highly recommend trying them out – a good protein powder is the key to making this recipe successful!
