Delicious and protein-packed chocolate protein pancakes made with oat flour and chocolate protein powder. These pancakes are perfect for a quick, nutritious breakfast that combines the rich flavor of cocoa with the added benefits of protein to keep you energized all morning.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • ¾ cup oat flour (100 grams, certified gluten-free if needed)
  • ¼ cup chocolate protein powder (30 grams, Equip Prime Protein recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 2 large eggs

Optional Ingredients

  • ¼ cup chocolate chips
  • Butter or cooking oil for pan (if needed)

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the oat flour, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, and baking powder until fully combined.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Pour in the unsweetened almond milk and crack the eggs into the bowl, then stir everything together until the batter is smooth and uniform.
  3. Preheat pan: Spray a medium-sized non-stick pan with cooking spray or lightly coat with butter or oil, then heat over low to medium heat until hot.
  4. Cook pancakes: Using about ¼ cup of batter per pancake, pour the batter into the pan. If using chocolate chips, sprinkle a few on top of each pancake while cooking the first side. Cook until small bubbles form on the surface, approximately 3-5 minutes.
  5. Flip pancakes: Carefully flip each pancake to the other side and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until cooked through and slightly firm in the middle.
  6. Serve: Place four pancakes on each plate and top with your choice of maple syrup, nut butter, or other favorite toppings for a delicious breakfast treat.

Notes

  • Using certified gluten-free oat flour makes these pancakes suitable for gluten-sensitive individuals.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less coconut sugar or syrup depending on preference.
  • Substitute almond milk with any preferred milk such as dairy or soy milk.
  • Chocolate chips are optional but add extra indulgence and texture.
  • Cook pancakes on low-medium heat to avoid burning and ensure even cooking.
