Equipment

  • Glass bowl
  • Non-stick Frying Pan
  • Metal spatula
  • Fork
  • Knife

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Ripe banana
  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1 tsp Sweetener
  • 1/4 tsp Baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp Salt
  • 3 tbsp Blueberries
  • The Protein Works Zero Syrup

Instructions
 

  • Scramble the eggs in a glass bowl
  • Break the banana into chunks in the bowl, add the baking powder, sweetener and salt and mash it together with a fork. The mix will be loose and runny - more like scrambled eggs than pancake mix, but don’t worry - they’ll cook nicely.
  • Stir the blueberries into the mixture
  • Heat a nonstick frying pan on medium heat.
  • Drop about 3 tablespoons of batter into one area of the pan. It should sizzle immediately — if not, turn up the heat slightly. Repeat with another two leaving at least an inch or two between pancakes.
  • Cook for about 1 minute until the bottoms look browned and golden when you lift a corner. The edges should also be starting to look set, but the centre will still be loose.
  • Using a flat metal spatula, lift around the edges of the pancake and then very gently and slowly flip it over. I find having a knife in the other hand to help a good idea. Press down on the flipped pancakes a bit to slightly squish the blueberries into the batter so they don’t fall out.
  • Cook for another minute or so until the other side is also golden-brown, about 1 minute more. You can flip the pancakes a few times if you need to in order to get them evenly browned.
  • Repeat steps 5-8 with the rest of the batter.
  • Serve fresh! They can be reheated, but best served fresh from the pan. Drizzle with your favourite ‘The Protein Works Zero Syrup’ - they’re surprisingly delicious and zero calories! My favourites are Maple Syrup and Butterscotch flavour.
