The Protein Pancake Recipe

The Protein Pancake Recipe

Protein pancakes are a high-protein breakfast format using a protein-mix-based batter to deliver 10–30g+ protein per stack in under 10 minutes. The Protein Pancake's signature method uses our Buttermilk Protein Pancake mix - one 40g serve, a quarter-cup of water, two minutes per side on medium-low heat. The result: 10g protein per pancake, 30g+ in a three-pancake stack.

Frequently asked

How do you make a protein pancake?

Mix one 40g serve of The Protein Pancake mix with a quarter-cup of water until smooth — no eggs, no extra protein powder needed. Cook on a medium-low non-stick pan, two minutes per side, flipping when bubbles set on top. Each 40g serve makes one large pancake (or two small) at 10g protein per pancake.

How much protein is in a protein pancake?

Each 40g serve of The Protein Pancake mix delivers 10g protein. A typical three-pancake stack hits 30g+ protein, comparable to a chicken breast. No additional protein powder required — the protein is built into the mix.

What is the best protein pancake mix?

We're biased — The Protein Pancake mix is built specifically for pancakes, not a generic protein powder you mix into flour. The result is the texture of a real pancake (not rubbery, not chalky) with 10g protein per serve, no eggs needed, and 8 flavour options including gluten-free. Browse all flavours here.

Are protein pancakes good for weight loss?

They can be part of a calorie-controlled diet. The Protein Pancake mix delivers around 130 calories and 10g protein per serve, which is a higher protein-to-calorie ratio than most breakfast carbs. High protein helps with satiety, so a stack tends to keep you full longer than a regular pancake breakfast.

Can I make protein pancakes ahead of time?

Yes. Cooked protein pancakes keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Re-heat in a toaster, dry pan, or microwave (10–20 seconds). For dedicated batch cooking, try the sheet-pan or tray-bake recipes — both designed for meal prep.
