Instructions:

1. Mix Ingredients:

   • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites and vanilla whey protein powder until well combined. This base will give your pancakes a fluffy texture and a protein boost.

2. Add Fruits and Adjust Consistency:

   • Stir in the mashed banana into your pancake batter, adding a natural sweetness and moisture. Fold in the blueberries for a burst of flavour and antioxidants.

   • If your pancake mixture is too thick, adjust the consistency by adding a splash of almond milk until you achieve the desired thickness.

3. Cook the Pancakes:

   • Heat the coconut oil in a non-stick pan over low-medium heat to ensure your pancakes don’t stick and get a nice golden colour.

   • Pour the pancake mixture into the pan. You can either make one large pancake or portion it out into 3 smaller ones.

   • Cook until little bubbles form on the surface for about 5 minutes, then check if the underside is done enough to flip. Carefully flip the pancake(s) and cook for 2-3 minutes on the other side.

4. Serve:

   • Serve your fluffy blueberry protein pancakes hot. They are delicious on their own, but you can also top them with extra blueberries, a dollop of Greek yoghurt, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra indulgence.

These Blueberry Protein Pancakes are not only a healthy start to your day but also incredibly satisfying. They provide a fantastic balance of protein, carbs, and fats, making them an ideal post-workout meal or a hearty breakfast to fuel your day. Enjoy crafting this simple yet nutritious meal and kickstart your morning with a smile!
