high protein quinoa pancakes

I hope you’re hungry! This is my favorite breakfast meal. My best friend thinks it’s totally gross, but I think it tastes great! So, get ready for a super high protein pancake recipe. It’s super easy!

INGREDIENTS

½ cup cooked quinoa

1 T organic whole wheat flour

¼ cup chia gel

½ serving protein powder (any kind)

2 egg whites

1 whole egg

1 T organic shredded coconut

 

DIRECTIONS

Make the chia gel the night before – 2 T chia seeds whisked with 1 cup water or coconut/almond/rice milk. Let the gel mixture sit in your refrigerator overnight.

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl then spoon out onto a heated pan. This is a VERY soupy, thin mixture. It makes approximately 11 pancakes. Serve with a 1/8 cup local maple syrup and enjoy! I eat all of them!!
