Fluffy High-Protein Pancakes

Thermomix recipe: Fluffy High-Protein Pancakes. Ready in 20 minutes. Serves 4. Step-by-step Thermomix instructions on Chef Amai.

Ingredients

• 100 g all-purpose flour
• 30 g protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• 2 large eggs
• 180 ml milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 1 tbsp maple syrup or sweetener of choice (optional)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
• Oil or butter, for cooking

Instructions

1. Add 100 g all-purpose flour, 30 g protein powder, 1 tbsp baking powder, and a pinch of salt to the Thermomix bowl. Mix 5 sec / Speed 4.
2. Add 2 large eggs, 180 ml milk, 1 tbsp maple syrup (if using), and 1 tsp vanilla extract (if using) to the bowl. Mix 20 sec / Speed 4, or until just combined and smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula if needed and mix again for 5 sec / Speed 4.
3. Let the batter rest in the bowl for 5-10 minutes while you prepare your frying pan. This allows the baking powder to activate and the flour to hydrate, resulting in fluffier pancakes.
4. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or butter.
5. Pour about 60 ml (1/4 cup) of batter per pancake onto the hot pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan lightly between batches if necessary.
7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, extra maple syrup, yogurt, or nuts.
