Ingredients

For the pancakes:

• 1 banana
• 2 eggs
• 40g coconut flour (or use shredded coconut)
• 60g oat flour (or use whole oats)
• 1 tbsp. Greek yoghurt
• 1 scoop Impact Whey Protein (Vanilla)
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. nutmeg
• ¼ tsp. salt

Optional toppings:

• Handful blueberries
• 1 tbsp. Greek yoghurt
• 1 tbsp. Sugar-Free Syrup (Maple)

or

• 1 tbsp. Sugar-Free Syrup (Maple)
• 2 rashers streaky bacon

Method

1. Add all of the pancake ingredients to a food processor and blend. (See the video for the desired consistency of the pancake batter, you may need to add a splash milk if it’s too thick, or some more oats if it’s not thick enough).

2. Heat a non-stick pan on a low heat and add a ladle/large spoonful of pancake mixture to the pan.

3. Cook each pancake for roughly 90 seconds before flipping and cooking for another minute. You should aim to get a total of five pancakes from the mixture.

4. Stack your pancakes and then add toppings of your choice. Tip: try heating the maple syrup in the microwave for 30 seconds, it makes it nicer!
