Ingredient Tips
If using whey protein instead of vegan protein powder, reduce the milk slightly to prevent the batter from becoming too thin. For extra flavor, add cinnamon or vanilla extract.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat oven to 180°C (356°F).
Add all ingredients directly into an oven-safe glass bowl and mix thoroughly until smooth.
If preparing multiple pancake bowls for meal prep, divide ingredients evenly and mix each bowl separately.
Add toppings of choice such as fresh berries, sugar-free chocolate chips, shredded carrots, or leave plain.
Bake for 20–22 minutes until set in the center.
Remove from oven and let cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with extra yogurt, nut butter, maple syrup, or fresh fruit.
