I know there's a lot of recipes online for Protein pancakes, but I'm not a big fan of cooking and even less of a fan of grocery shopping, so I thought I'd wing it with what I had in the house this morning. I made 1/2 batch of Bob's Red Mill Buttermilk pancakes with 1% milk and added 2 instead of 1 egg and a scoop of powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein powder. It made 8 pancakes...I ate one and froze the other 7 for future "grab and go" microwave breakfasts. I had no syrup in the house so I topped it with a little bit of butter and a pinch of sugar (yes, REAL sugar) with a side of 1/2 sausage link. YUMMY!!!

For those of you who count calories and stuff, I did some calculations as I was mixing. I normally don't track anything, but don't worry, I got all "A's" in math.... Turns out each pancake (without the butter and sugar) has about 3.5g carb, 5g protein, and 54 calories. Sorry, didn't look at the fat numbers. Anyways, it was a nice change from all the eggs and oatmeal and yogurt and shakes I've been having for Breakfast, and I'm stuffed!

My new fave treat these days is cottage cheese with sugar free raspberry jam, yum! I can't do the sugar free torani syrups, they seem to not agree with me even pre surgery.

I never did mind SF syrup. I could not tell the difference

The Medifast powders also make great pancakes. Just mix it with water to the proper consistency and fry in a little butter. It's fantastic.

This is what remained of my delicious breakfast! One sneeze and eating is over!

Has anyone one Kodiak Cakes? It is a whole wheat/grain pancake mix and you just add water. Not super high protein, but 2 4" pancakes are around 190 calories and 7g (I think) or protein. My husband and I saw them on Shark Tank a couple weeks ago and I wanted to try them. The only place that I know of the sells it is Target. The recipes I have tried make them so heavy and thick. These were good and worth a try to me.

I was gonna buy the protein pancake mix I saw on Amazon. I can't remember the name. My family loves pancake night. I said I didn't really miss much since surgery. Then I read this post. Pancakes sound so good!

Just found this online after Googling Protein Pancakes. I'll be all over the coconut ones once I transition to solid foods (this Friday, yay!)

Be well…

There is a banana/egg pancake you can make which is okay. I think I have had maybe 2 pancakes in the last year. never can eat the whole pancake but with lite syrup or sugar free syrup it was good for a change. I mostly eat turkey sausage and egg beaters for breakfast so it's a treat to do pancakes. As long as you don't eat stacks of pancakes every day I think you will be okay. Part of the reason I got WLS was so I didn't stress everytime I put food in my mouth. The band tells me when I've eaten enough and I pretty much don't count calories.

This 'pancake' post is good to see. I love pancakes and think about them sometimes. But instead of making 3 or 4 big ones for me, now with the VSG, I will probably just have one (or a half of one like RJ). Cool! Bit if I have it, it will be with butter and real syrup or 1-2 Tbsl. of honey. Just a rare time; not a habit.

I'm stalled right now at 205 pounds (still paying for that Charleston trip!) and want to be in Onederland by Apr. 23, so I might not do pancakes this week. (But even this is still good, because I didn't think I'd reach Onederland until June [6 months; I'm at 4.5 months].)

New version of my "30 second microwave protein pancakes"!...

So I ate all the pancakes I made from my OP and decided to make another batch (you can't beat a 30 second pancake breakfast) this time I used 3/4 cup Bob's Red Mill Buttermilk pancake mix, one scoop Unjury unflavored powder, 1 scoop Garden of Life Raw Vanilla Protein, 1/4 tsp baking soda, 1/4 tsp baking powder, 2 eggs and 1/2 cup skim milk. Made 8 pancakes. Ate 1, froze 7. Man o man these are good! Much lighter and fluffier than the first batch and the Raw Vanilla Protein added a much richer, nuttier "whole wheat" flavor. And the protein per pancake went from 5g to 8g.
