Recipe Review - Protein Pancake

Four Ingredient Protein Pancakes

I am not sure where this recipe originally came from or who created it,
I found a blog post on Pintrest (this is the post) it included the recipe saying that it had come from a magazine.

• 1 large mashed banana
• 2 eggs
• 1/8 tsp baking powder
• 2 tbsp vanilla whey protein powder

I mixed all this in my blender, I used coconut oil to keep the pancakes from sticking to the pan. 

I have to say that this recipe didn't work as well as I had hoped, 

The pancakes where black on the outside and still raw on the inside, I tried to make a few different sized pancakes thinking that this might change the result. It was a little better when I made the pancakes small (2 inches across) but didn't totally fix the problem. I used about half the batter doing this before I decided to pour the rest in the pan and try cooking one big pancake in the oven @350 for 10 minutes. This was way more successful, my suggestion would be baking these in a muffin tin I would guess it will make about 8 pancake "muffins"

Recipe - Single Serving Protein Banana Bread

Mini Protein Banana Loaf

Ingredients

1. 1 ripe banana*
2. 2 Tbsp butter
3. 1 egg
4. 1 tsp vanilla extract
5. 3 tbsp brown sugar
6. 1/4 cup flour
7. 1 tsp baking soda
8. 1/4 cup vanilla protein powder

Preheat oven to 325F 

I use my blender to make this recipe mix together your banana, butter, egg, vanilla and brown sugar. Then add in flour, baking soda, and protein powder blend it all. Pour into well greased mini loaf pan.

Bake for 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean

*I normally use a frozen banana that Ive thawed out 

I am slowly modifying this recipe so that it is healthier but I haven't come up with anything amazing as of yet.

This has around 30g of protein in the whole loaf, I will make this for breakfast and save half for the next day.
