Ingredients:

·      2 Bananas

·      2 Tbsp Almond Butter or Peanut butter

·      1 Scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder

·      1 Egg

·      Dark Chocolate chips

1.     Mash the banana, nut butter, and egg until smooth

2.     Mix in protein powder and dark chocolate chips

3.     Cook until browned on each side

4.     Let sit for 5 minute to firm up

Overachiever: 

You can separate the egg and whip the egg white until it forms peaks on a mixer, then fold it into the mixture for extra thick and fluffy pancakes.  Mix in the yolk during the first step. DO NOT THROW IT AWAY, it’s like a multivitamin and is packed with extra protein. I put Greek yogurt on it to make it fancy.
