Ingredients

Pancake Batter

1 cup pancake mix Use any pancake mix you have on hand.
1 scoop vanilla protein powder Optional; can be omitted if not available.
3/4 cup milk Can substitute with dairy-free alternatives like almond or oat milk.
1 large egg Might be substituted with a flax egg for a vegan option.

as needed cooking spray To prevent sticking.

For Dipping

as needed maple syrup or yogurt Serve with either for dipping.

Instructions

Preparation

Whisk together the pancake mix, protein powder, milk, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth. Keep stirring until no lumps remain.
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly coat the surface with cooking spray.

Cooking

Pour the batter into the skillet in small, long strips rather than round pancakes, aiming for about the size of your finger.
Cook until bubbles begin to form on the surface, then gently flip the dippers over and cook the other side until golden brown.
Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For storage, keep pancake dippers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days. To reheat, use the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes for a crisp texture.
