Chocolate Coconut Protein Pancakes

You all know how much I LOVE my protein pancakes!  Personally, I think pancakes should be their own food group.  Just sayin!  Lol.  So, this morning I was craving chocolate and coconut for some reason and decided to put those two flavors together to make a delicious and nutritious stack of high protein pancakes :)

Chocolate Coconut Protein Pancakes

with warm almond butter sauce and fresh strawberries

Ingredients:

(Dry)

- 2 tbsp Organic Coconut Flour

- 1/2 scoop VPX Sports SRO Zero Carb Chocolate Protein Powder

- 1/8 tsp Ground Cinnamon

- 1/8 tsp Baking Powder

(Wet)

- 1/2 cup Unsweetend Vanilla Almond Milk

- 1/4 cup Egg Whites

- 1 tbsp Plain Non-Fat Greek Yogurt

- 1/8 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract

(Topping)

- 1 tbsp All Natural Almond Butter

- 50g Fresh Organic Strawberries, chopped

Instructions:

- Mix all the dry ingredients together in a small bowl.

*Tip*

Use a glass measuring cup with a spout to mix ingredients so you can easily pour the pancake batter!

- Combine wet ingredients with dry ingredients and stir until you reach a smooth pancake batter consistency.

- Heat pan to Low-Medium heat and spray with non-stick cooking spray or coat with coconut oil.

- Pour 1/3 of the batter onto pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side.

*Tip*

When pancakes form air bubbles that is a good indication you should flip your pancake ;)

- This recipe makes 3 medium sized Chocolate Coconut Protein Pancakes!

- Spoon 1 tbsp of almond butter into a small microwave safe bowl and heat for about 30 seconds.

- Pour warm almond butter sauce over Chocolate Coconut Protein Pancakes stack.

- Chop fresh strawberries and place on top!

Now enjoy deliciousness! <3
