Take out a bowl
Add into it your 3 Large Egg Yolks (keep your Egg Whites off to the side), Milk Substitute, Protein Powder, Sweetener, and Pancake Mix
Mix everything up until smooth
Use a whisk or hand mixer and beat your Egg Whites for a couple minutes or until they can shape waves without crashing (stiff peaks some would say!)
Add your Egg Whites into your other mix and lightly mix them in
Take out a cake pan or multiple, coat it/them with some non-stick cooking spray, and evenly distribute your mix
Bake your Japanese Pancakes on 325F/162C for around 20 minutes (remove them with a little jiggle left so they don’t overcook)

Take out a stovetop pan that has a lid, turn your burner on low heat, and coat it with some non-stick cooking spray
Pour some of your mix in once it heats up and cover your pan
After 1-2 minutes remove your cover and add a little bit more mix on top
Cover and repeat the process one more time
Flip your pancake over, cover it again, and let it took for a couple minutes

LOW HEAT if you're making them on the stovetop! Slow and steady wins this race!

Add a little water inside your stovetop pan while they cook and they'll be sure to hold moisture!

Change up the flavor with your protein powder!
