Directions

Let’s get cooking! Follow these simple steps to make your Chocolate Protein Powder Pancakes:

Mixing Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir until the dry ingredients are well mixed.

Mixing Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until everything is well combined.

Combining Wet and Dry

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Cooking the Pancakes

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. For each pancake, ladle about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until both sides are golden brown.

Topping it Off

Once your pancakes are ready, serve them with your choice of toppings. Fresh strawberries, a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of whipped cream, and a sprinkling of chocolate chips make for a fantastic combination.
