Ingredients notes:
**A full ingredient list with exact amounts can be found in the recipe card below.**

Toss everything into a bowl and whisk it until smooth. Make sure there are no dry clumps of protein powder left behind.

- Heat your griddle or nonstick pan over medium. Spray with cooking spray.
- Pour half the batter onto the pan and cook until bubbles start to pop on the surface—about a minute or so.
- Flip and cook the other side for another minute.
- Repeat with the rest of the batter and you’re done!
Top them with sugar-free syrup, or mix up some nonfat Greek yogurt with a little sweetener for extra protein and creaminess.


Helpful Notes
- Your protein powder matters: Some protein powders soak up liquid more than others. If your batter feels too thick, add a splash of almond milk or water. If it’s too runny, sprinkle in a bit more powder or pudding mix.
- Want them fluffier? Add ½ teaspoon baking powder to the batter.
- Make it your own: Try switching up the flavor of pudding mix or stevia drops. Cheesecake pudding with strawberry stevia is one combo I keep going back to.
And just a heads-up: the calories will vary depending on your protein powder. Mine (from Zumub) gives me these macros for 40g:
157 calories, 3g fat, 2g carbs, 29g protein
With the egg whites added in, you’re easily hitting 40g of protein total.
