Sweet Potato Protein Pancakes

Sweet Potato Protein PancakesThis recipe comes from Shah, and is super simple and super delicious.

You are always told to start your day off with protein, but sometimes you get tired of eggs, and obviously eating bacon every morning isn’t going to be good for you. Well Shah sent us this sweet potato protein pancakes recipe that takes no time at all to get going. Better yet, cook off a double batch and freeze what you aren’t going to eat this week!

Servings: 1 (2 pancakes per serving)

Prep Time: 10 mins

Cooking Time: 5 mins (Per Serving)

Calories: 358 Protein: 24 grams Carbohydrates: 59 grams Fat: 3 grams

Ingredients

  • 1 medium-sized sweet potato
  • 1/ 2 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 large egg
  • 6 egg whites
  • 1/ 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/ 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/ 4 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
  • 1 scoop Protein Powder (Optional). I use Cinnabun Protein Powder (Trutein Brand)

Directions

  1. Puncture the sweet potato several times with a fork. Wrap it in a paper towel and microwave it for 5 minutes on high. Run it under cool water and then remove the skin with a knife. You can steam the potato instead of using microwave.
  2. Blend the oats until they are a powder and dump into a bowl. Blend the sweet potato until smooth and place it into the bowl with the oats. Stir in the egg, egg whites, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and yogurt. Add one scoop Protein Powder. Mix well until it forms a smooth batter.
  3. Coat a pan with cooking spray and wipe away the excess with a paper towel. Save this for wiping the pan after cooking each pancake. Heat the pan on medium-low heat.
  4. Spoon about 1/ 2 cup of batter into the pan and cook for 1 – 2 minutes or until golden brown. Flip the pancake and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until golden brown and firm. Put the pancake on a plate and wipe the pan with the paper towel.
  5. Repeat step 4 with the rest of the batter.

Not only is this a great recipe to cook the pancakes in large batches for later enjoyment, but the choices are endless with options to top it. Toss some strawberries, bananas, walnuts, or more on top for a complete morning meal made in minutes. If you make this recipe and love it, please repost it on Twitter and or Facebook!
