Banana Protein Pancake with Peanut Flour Sauce

Good morning! Yesterday, my family and I went to a local restaurant for dinner. I got noodles with tomato sauce in the biggest bowl I have ever seen in my whole entire life. The bowl easily had 5 servings of pasta! I didn’t finish the whole thing, because I was so stuffed! (I didn’t get the chance to take a picture, sorry!) What did you do on the weekend?

This morning I was really craving pancakes and bananas. So I combined those two and made a Banana Protein Pancake! It tasted amazing and I will definitely be making these again very soon!

Instructions:

  1. Put all the ingredients into a bowl and mix very well.
  2. Spray your pan with olive oil (or whatever you’d like to use) and heat up your stove (Medium Heat).
  3. Pour pancake mixture into your pan.
  4. Flip over the pancake after about 1 min.

This pancake is loaded with protein! These nutrition stats vary, depending on which protein powder you use.

I decided to top my pancake with peanut flour “sauce” because ever since I bought peanut flour I have been in love with it! And I love the banana and peanut butter combo so this was perfect!

I got some comments asking me how I made the Peanut Flour “Sauce” in my previous post, so here’s how: Put two tablespoons of peanut flour into a small bowl, add some Stevia (Optional)  and cinnamon (Optional), add about one to one and a half tablespoons of water and mix well.

Now I’m off to kick some things off of my to-do list whilst drinking my tea. :)

  12. I use nutribiotic rice protein, both the vanilla and chocolate flavors. It isn't sweetened like a like of protein powders, which I prefer. Love how you topped your pancake with a peanut flour sauce!

    I love Rooibos tea :)

  17. yum, I love banana pancakes! I've always wanted to try peanut flour, but I never seem to find it when I shop, or I never really look that hard for it. I'll have to get some!

  18. I love nut butter, maple syrup, applesauce, or berries on my pancakes. Alone... or all together:)

  19. I've wanted to make pancakes with protein powder for ages--definitely no excuse now, I've got to try this recipe! I use a vegan rice protein powder. And would love to try peanut flour sauce, but can't find the flour around here. I'll just have to stick with maple syrup for now :D

  20. Pancakes are rather popular in the blog world this past weekend :P I LOVE protein pancakes! I use this generic vanilla stuff... I don't know the name off the top of my head. I love putting blueberries on them :)

    ReplyDelete
  21. Mmmmm pancakes!! I made our family whole wheat pancakes yesterday and they were delicious! Maple syrup and bananas were my toppers but sometimes I put peanut butter and jam or a homemade fruit compote on top too...

    I love Vanilla rooibis tea!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Yum! I love pancakes. I am big on some type of fruit/nut butter topping. Usually it is banana, and pecan butter :)

    I really do not use protein powder very often. I have a container of unflavored pea protein that I have had for several months.

  23. Yummmms!

    I also like to put the teeeensiest pinch of salt in my peanut flour sauce, just enough to offset the stevia aftertaste!

    Favourite pancake toppings would have to be maple syrup and chopped bananas - although that peanut flour sauce is looking pretty good! Need to get some of that stuff soon.

  26. Yumm yum! I love that these have a great amount of protein in them... that helps to keep me full
    My favorite toppings are good old maple syrup and also warm/melted fruit :)

  27. Looks delish! Sorry I've not commented in a while, i thought I'd subscribed ooops. I use a cruddy protein powder, its very artificial but cheap too! Pancake toppings - coconut shavings all the way!

    ReplyDelete
  28. I love those flavor combinations, Shannon!

    but I think I would have been hungry 5 minutes later!- I'd need about 5 of them :)

  29. This looks so good. I definitely need to try to make peanut flour sauce because it seems so delish and very popular. I guess that means its legit.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Yum! My fav pancake toppings lately have been apples or strawberries :)

    ReplyDelete
  31. Oh yum! I love putting pb on pancakes and this probably takes it to a whole other level.
    Right now, I don't use protein powder. I used to borrow my roommates a bit here and there and never got my own.

  32. I use Bluebonnet Vanilla and I really really like it. It doesn't have the gross after taste like so many of them do.

  33. I love my pancakes with berries and whipped cream :-)

  34. 1. I haven't had pancakes in over a decade.
    2. Bananas still cost $3 each here.
    3. We can't get peanut flour in Australia.
    4. OH THE ENVY!! :D

    ReplyDelete
  35. this looks really yummy! i've been eating lotsa gluten free pancakes lately but they don't have very much protein so i'm definitely gonna have to try this! :)

    ReplyDelete
  36. I add a teeny bit of salt to my peanut flour sauce too. Otherwise we make ours about the same!

  37. I looove warmed berries on pancakes. Though a nut butter sauce is making a slow comeback

  38. I don't use protein powder often enough to have a favorite brand. I do like to make protein pancakes though so I might just have to look for this brand.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  42. Yay pancakes! They're just perfect for any meal! I usually don't top my pancakes I just add many ingredients and more sugar to them :-)

    ReplyDelete
  43. I see pancakes all over the blog world, but I don't have them very often, because I'm not very good at making them!
    These look levely :-)

    ReplyDelete
  44. Your pancake looks adorable by itself. And that peanut butter flour sauce looks so yummy! I wonder if it could be used in thai curry dishes as well?? :)

    ReplyDelete
