Ingredients

These vegan protein pancake bowls use the these ingredients:

• Soy milk (or other plant milk): Provides moisture and binds ingredients together, contributing a creamy texture and subtle flavor.

• Chia seeds: mixing 1 tablespoon chia seeds and 3 tablespoon water (chia eggs) acts as a binding agent, thickening the batter

• Mashed banana: Adds natural sweetness, binds ingredients, and enhances moisture and texture. You can omit this and add more chia seeds.

• Maple syrup: Serves as a natural sweetener, enhancing flavor.

• Vanilla extract: Adds a warm flavor, complementing sweetness.

• Oat flour: Provides structure and texture, offering a nutty flavor.

• Baking powder: Helps pancakes rise, creating a light and fluffy texture.

• Vanilla protein powder: Boosts protein content to 30g per serving, contributes to flavor, and enhances meal satisfaction.

Instructions to make the Protein Pancake Bowls

Mix 1 tablespoon of chia seeds in a small bowl with 3 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it forms a gel-like consistency.

Combine the soy milk, mashed banana, maple syrup or sugar, vanilla extract, and the prepared chia egg in a large mixing bowl. Mix well.

Gradually add the all-purpose flour mix or oat flour, protein powder and baking powder into the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined.

Divide the mix into two containers, top with fresh fruits or chocolate chips and microwave for 3 minutes or bake for 15 minutes at 180C (356F) when the toothpick comes out dry.

When ready to serve, add more fruit toppings and drizzle with maple syrup.
