The Process

Heat pan or griddle at medium heat

Notes

  • Can sub 2 tsp vanilla extract for maple syrup.

  • These are very lightly sweetened, feel free to add a little more sweetener. Honey can also be used.

  • Make sure the pan is hot enough that the batter sizzles.

  • Try cooking half a batch of pancakes and then stir in 1 TBSP of Caprotein powder to make a half batch of each!

  • I do not use any other kind of protein powder; substitute at your own risk.
