What Makes The Best Gluten-Free Blender Protein Pancakes?

Although these pancakes are protein packed, the same criteria for making the perfect pancakes still holds true. We’re looking for a golden brown, buttery outside with a soft, warm inside. Top with your favorite topping such as cinnamon and sugar, peanut butter, or maple syrup. The difference in these pancakes is they contain healthier ingredients than normal pancakes.

With that said, the criteria for making the best gluten-free blender protein pancakes is creating a pancake that’s:

• Brown and buttery on the outside with a soft and warm inside
• Pack with protein and nutrients you need to start your day
• Small enough to dip so you can bring them on-the-go
• Made in a blender rather than mixing bowls

If we can nail these criteria, we’re well on our way to perfecting this recipe.

The Story Of This Recipe

As a collegiate athlete, I was always looking for new ways to have a healthy, protein filled breakfast. Through trial and tribulation, I had the idea of putting protein powder into my pancake mix (after scanning the internet, I certainly did not come up with that idea). I figured by adding that scoop of protein powder, I could help transform my favorite breakfast (pancakes) into a nutritious meal to kickstart my busy day.

Additionally, I was in college! I always looked for ways to be more efficient with my cooking. I didn’t have access to a Kitchen Aid standing mixer or even a hand mixer at that. So, I decided to use the blender. I had a NutriBullet and let me tell you, it works GREAT! Within a few seconds, my pancake mix was fully blended and combined.

Through those two key ideas, I created the blender protein pancakes recipe. Over time, I’ve refined and perfected the recipe and include the best ingredients I can find that continue to make a healthy breakfast. Long story shot, this is the recipe I landed on, and I’m so excited to share it with you. Let’s dive into the ingredients we need to make the best gluten-free blender protein pancakes.

How To Make Gluten-Free Blender Protein Pancakes

2. Blend (30-60 seconds) until completely smooth.
3. Allow batter to rest (about 5 minutes) to allow it to thicken up.
