Yield: 2 servings
Total time: 12 minutes
Ingredients:
- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ cup milk (any kind)
- ½ cup frozen cranberries, slightly thawed
- 1 teaspoon orange zest (or ¼ teaspoon orange extract)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
Directions
- Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend for about 20 seconds or until smooth.
- Heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Test the heat by placing a few drops of water on the pan; if it sizzles, the pan is ready.
- Pour enough batter in the pan to make a 5-inch pancake. Let it cook until batter bubbles, then flip the pancake.
- Cook the second side about 20 seconds, then remove from heat. Repeat with remaining batter (makes about 6 pancakes).
