Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup Premier Protein Vanilla Shake
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or butter for cooking

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.

Step 2

In another bowl, whisk the Premier Protein Vanilla Shake, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. The batter may be slightly lumpy, which is normal.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a tablespoon of vegetable oil or butter, spreading it evenly over the surface.

Step 5

Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet. Cook until small bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Carefully flip the pancake and cook the other side until golden brown, about another 2 minutes.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, syrup, or yogurt.
