Ingredients

• 4 large Eggs
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 2 scoops Whey protein powder
• 0.5 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 cup Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, etc.)
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch ovenproof skillet on the middle rack while the oven heats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and almond milk until well combined.

Step 3

Add the whey protein powder, whole wheat flour, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the egg mixture and whisk until smooth. Ensure no lumps remain.

Step 4

Carefully remove the heated skillet from the oven and add the unsalted butter. Swirl the skillet to coat it evenly as the butter melts.

Step 5

Once the butter has melted completely and is bubbling, pour the pancake batter into the skillet.

Step 6

Place the skillet back in the oven and bake the pancake for about 20 minutes, or until it is puffed and golden brown around the edges.

Step 7

While the pancake is baking, prepare the toppings: mix Greek yogurt with a tablespoon of maple syrup and set aside.

Step 8

When the pancake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. It will deflate as it cools, creating a crater perfect for toppings.

Step 9

Top the pancake with the Greek yogurt mixture, fresh berries, and drizzle the remaining maple syrup over the top.

Step 10

Slice into quarters and serve immediately for a delicious, high-protein breakfast treat.
