Is it possible to make protein pancakes that are fluffy & delicious but low in calories & super easy to make? YES! These Fluffy Lemon Zucchini Protein Pancakes have become one of my go-to pancakes & they’re the perfect way to embrace zucchini season! 

Directions

  1. Combine all ingredients except the zucchini in a food processor or blender & blend until smooth. Fold in the zucchini.

  2. Heat a large frying pan or griddle over medium. Once warm, add a little coconut oil & swirl in pan to spread evenly.

  3. Use ¼ cup measuring cup to scoop the batter & cook until little bubbles form on top.

  4. Cook until golden on both sides. Serve as-is, with maple syrup, yogurt or my Quick Berry Sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup egg whites

  • ½ cup rolled oats, dry

  • 1 cup shredded zucchini (not squeezed)

  • 3 heaping scoops vanilla whey isolate, Schinoussa used

  • 1 oz fresh lemon juice (& zest optional) 

  • 7 drops Better Stevia, Lemon flavour (or plain stevia but add more lemon juice)

  • ¼ tsp sea salt

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 2 tsp poppy seeds, optional

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract, optional 

  • Coconut oil for frying

Notes

Leftovers - I always make extra to save time during the week. Simply store in an airtight container in the freezer. Use parchment to keep the pancakes from sticking together.

No Zucchini? - Simply omit!
