Low Carb Protein Pancakes without Powder

1 Stack225 cals

Are you on a low carb diet? Don’t have protein powder? Craving pancakes? These Low Carb Protein Pancakes without Powder only have 10 grams of carbs in the whole recipe, take just a few simple ingredients to make, and are PACKED with protein!

For these low carb protein pancakes you’re going to need a food processor or good blender. If you don’t have either, here’s a link to my cheap (awesome!) food processor. Alternatively, if you have oat flour or you’re not using rolled outs then a regular mixing bowl will work fine.

All you have to do from here is to add right into your food processor or blender 2 large whole eggs, 1 large egg white, 1/8 cup of rolled oats, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 3 ounces of cream cheese, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder.

Low Carb Substitutes

  • Coconut flour or almond flour instead of rolled oats (no processor or blender needed).
  • Cottage cheese or Greek yogurt instead of cream cheese.

You can also optionally make these low carb protein pancakes sweeter by adding in some low carb diet friendly sweetener (I like erythritol), honey, or brown rice syrup!

Process or blend all of those ingredients together until smooth.

Take out a pan or griddle, turn your burner on medium heat, and coat it with some non-stick cooking spray. Let your pan or griddle heat up.

Pour some of your mix on and let each side of your low carb protein pancakes without powder cook for around 2-3 minutes. This is the part where you can choose how big, small, or even what shape you want your pancakes to be.

    Mmm! I used the coconut flour, and ended up with 5 medium pancakes. Better than the usual egg white/oat pancakes I’ve been making, and those are my jam. These are awesome!
