Me and those darn protein pancakes.
Last week I showed you guys a protein pancake that happened when I really wanted chocolate chips but didn’t have any so I threw in blueberries. The pancake recipe still needed work and I wanted to continue working on it because, even though the consistency wasn’t the best at the time, I really enjoyed having blueberries in the pancake.
So here I am again – made another try and this time, the protein pancake was a success!
I thereby present you with PB&J protein pancakes!
I called this pancake a PB&J even though there really is no jelly here but I think the blueberries are a great substitute for the jelly. You can pretend like that’s the jelly part of the sandwich and the PB2 acts as the peanut butter. PB2 really is a kind of peanut butter except lower in fat and I actually prefer it to regular peanut butter.
All in all, this pb&j pancake is like a healthier peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Except it is in a form of a pancake. But not just any pancake at that… it’s a protein pancake. Yum.
So go and get your protein-filled breakfast on! As recommended by Kammie 
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp vanilla protein powder (I used Collagen Sport)
- 1 Tbsp coconut flour
- 1 Tbsp spelt flour
- scant 1/4 tsp baking powder
- pinch of salt
- cinnamon, to taste
- 3 Tbsp liquid egg whites
- 2 Tbsp unsweetened almond milk
- 1 Tbsp unsweetened applesauce
- 1/4 cup blueberries, thawed
- Topping: 2 Tbsp PB2 + 3 Tbsp water
Instructions
- Heat a pan on medium heat and coat it with coconut oil.
- Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
- Add wet and mix. Add blueberries.
- Pour the mixture onto the heated pan and cook for a couple of minutes until it is easy to move the pancake around, and then flip it (for me it took like 5 min on each side)
- Cook until the other side of the pancake is fully cooked.
- While the pancake is cooking, mix the PB2 and water in a smaller bowl and put in a freezer to thicken back up. When the pancake is ready you can add some more water to the PB2 mixture to thin it out or slather it on when it’s thick – whatever is your preference.

I’m sitting here sooo hungry and seeing these beautiful photos only makes it worse
I love pancakes and definitely consider them a treat. Since I can’t make them daily, a breakfast consisting of a huge plate of pancakes always feels so special.

Aww well you should make some, I totally use pancakes as a treat too, since they take longer to make. But the protein pancake (just one) is pretty easy to make and quick so I have that one more often than regular pancakes
PB and J in pancakes = love!
We used to have grilled PB&J all the time growing up… this reminds me of those. but much healthier. There’s nothing like warm PB!

I have yet to make an actual warm PB sandwich but I saw those grilled PB sandwiches around blogs and they look soooo mmmmmmm!
PB&J makes me happy. Pancakes make me happy. And protein does too. These are a must make Kammie!!

“…and I actually prefer it to regular peanut butter.” <- What the HELL are you smoking girl?!! I love me some peanut flour, but it will NEVER replace the real deal! Of course, lately I've been caught with my spoon in the nut butter jars a bit too frequently…maybe I should start trying to convince myself that the powdered stuff is better…nahhhh! Lol
Mmmm, bloobies!!!
