Okay come on, who’s seen “Singin’ In The Rain” before?!
*Raises both hands*.
It was one of my favorite movies growing up because Gene Kelly is such an amazing dancer! And Debbie Reynolds is probably the cutest person ever, even now.
Actually no, Betty White is the cutest person ever.
And she’s still going.
Bottom line, this pancake recipe will have you feeling like Gene, Debby, and Don do in the picture above. 🙂
Got just 10 minutes? Great!
You have time to make these 3-Ingredient Protein Pancakes!
You’ve probably seen this recipe floating around the Internet before, but if you haven’t, I’m showing you how to do it now!
Here’s the original recipe: 1 banana, 2 eggs, and a dash of cinnamon (optional).
Here’s my adapted recipe: 1 banana, 1 egg, 3 tbsp. Liquid Egg Whites, and optional protein powder. Oh and I added some cocoa powder because why not?! Top it with some Greek yogurt and shredded coconut and you’ve got yourself a MEAL!!
Alright, so maybe that’s more than 3 ingredients, but I was feeling a little spontaneous this morning after a super sweaty Vinyasa class.
Hurry, your fork is waiting.
