Plant-Based Protein Pancakes
These plant based protein pancakes have close to 30 grams of protein per serving! They are fluffy, delcious, and easy to whip together.
Here’s everything you will need to make these plant-based protein pancakes:
PANCAKES
All-purpose flour or whole wheat flour - if you use whole wheat flour be sure to add additional dairy free milk as the whole wheat flour is much thicker than all-purpose
Plant-based protein powder - I have found that this works best with pea protein powder. Here is my go-to for this recipe
Sugar or sugar alternative
Salt
Soy milk ( or your preferred non-dairy milk)
Baking powder
Vegan butter or olive oil spray for cooking
OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:
Vegan butter
Maple Syrup
Mixed berries
This recipe makes roughly 3-4 medium-sized pancakes. Feel free to double the ingrediens to make more.

Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour)
- 1 scoop of plant-based pea protein powder
- 8 grams (2 teaspoons) sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 3/4 cup soy milk
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- Vegan butter or olive oil spray for cooking
- Syrup and fruit for serving
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, protein powder, sugar, baking powder and a pinch of salt.
- Start by whisking in half of the milk to the dry ingredients. Slowly whisk the remaining milk and whisk until you achieve a semi-smooth batter; however, be sure not to overmix. There should still be a few small clumps. Adjust the milk quantity if needed for the desired consistency. If using whole wheat flour, you will need a bit more dairy-free milk
- Heat a pan over low heat and lightly coat it with vegan butter or olive oil spray.
- Pour the batter onto the pan, using approximately 1/3 cup for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (roughly 2 minutes on each side), then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
- Repeat the process until all the batter is used, adjusting heat if necessary to prevent burning.
- Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite syrup.
