Delicious protein pancakes

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 ripe banana
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or your choice of yogurt)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
• 1 scoop (about 1/4 cup) protein powder of your choice (e.g., whey, plant-based)

Prepare the Ingredients:

• Start by gathering and measuring all your ingredients.
• If your banana is not very ripe, you can microwave it for 20-30 seconds to soften it, making it easier to blend.

Blend the Pancake Batter:

• Place the rolled oats in a blender or food processor and blend until you have a fine oat flour.
• Add the ripe banana, Greek yogurt, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon (if using), and protein powder to the blender. Blend until you have a smooth pancake batter. You can adjust the consistency by adding a little more yogurt or milk if it's too thick.

Preheat the Griddle or Pan:

• Preheat a griddle or non-stick frying pan over medium heat. You can lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of oil if needed.

Cook the Pancakes:

• Pour small portions of the pancake batter onto the griddle to form pancakes of your desired size. You can use a ladle or measuring cup to portion them evenly.
• Cook until you see bubbles forming on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, which usually takes about 2-3 minutes.

Flip and Cook the Other Side:

• Carefully flip each pancake using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

Serve and Enjoy:

• Once the pancakes are done, transfer them to a plate.
• Serve your protein pancakes with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, sliced banana, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, a dollop of yogurt, or a sprinkle of nuts.
