Peanut Butter and Fluff Protein Pancakes

I’m 27, and I’m eating a Fluffernutter.  For Breakfast.  And it’s good for me.  Is this real life, or is this a flashback to the fantasies of nine-year-old Jo?   Well, Yogi Bear is no where to be seen and I’m not using dial-up, so it must me the former.

These really are pretty ridiculous though.  As Courtney put it, “that looks like something I would have made drunk in college.”  Sounds like an endorsement to me.

Peanut Butter and Fluff Protein Pancakes

IMG_4695

  • 1/4 cup pancake mix or flour of choice (I used 1/4 cup Wild Roots Ancient Grain Pancake and waffle mix, which is gluten-free and can be found at Costco)
  • 1/4 cup cake batter Muscle Milk protein powder, or protein powder of choice
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup milk of choice (I used almond)
  • Dash of Cinnamon

Toppings:

  • 1 Banana, sliced
  • Peanut Butter: 1/4 cup PB2, prepared to be liquidy enough to drizzle
  • Fluff: 2 T cake batter/vanilla protein power, combined with 2 T fat-free vanilla Greek yogurt

Mix all pancake ingredients  thoroughly.  Spray pan and heat over medium heat.  Spoon half the batter at a time (this will make two very large pancakes).  Once the batter begins to bubble, flip and allow other side to cook.  These cook very quickly.  Transfer to a plate and garnish with sliced banana, “Fluff” and PB2.

Serves 2
