Ingredients
To make protein pancakes with oatmeal, you need the following ingredients: 1/2 cup of oatmeal, 1 scoop of protein powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 cup of milk, 2 eggs, 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup of fresh blueberries (optional).
These ingredients can be used to make up to four servings of protein pancakes with oatmeal. But feel free to adjust the quantities if you need to make more or less.
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the oatmeal, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir everything together until it’s evenly mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract until everything is well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix everything together until there are no lumps.
If you’re adding the blueberries, fold them into the batter.
Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium-low heat. Grease the pan or griddle with butter or oil, and spoon 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan or griddle for each pancake.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges are starting to look dry and the bottom is golden-brown. Flip the pancakes, and cook them for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until they’re golden-brown.
Serve the pancakes with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, yogurt, or fresh fruit. Enjoy!

If you’re looking for a higher protein content, you can use a different type of protein powder, such as whey protein or casein protein, or you can add a scoop of protein powder to the batter.
