We love our Peanut Butter Cup Pancakes and Peanut Butter Flaxseed Pancakes. But this version was specifically designed to be higher in protein (and gluten-free!) to keep your energy high till lunch. Not only are they fluffy, flavorful, and delicious, but these pancakes also come together in just 1 bowl and 20 minutes! Quick, healthy breakfast, here we come! The base of this recipe is a flax egg, vegan “buttermilk” (made from almond milk and apple cider vinegar or lemon juice), maple syrup for natural sweetness, and vanilla. Peanut butter and coconut oil come next, providing a little protein and healthy fat to keep you feeling satiated. And oat flour adds plenty of fiber, plant protein, and whole-grain goodness.
We prefer cooking these pancakes in a lightly oiled cast-iron skillet for best results (see cast-iron tips in our Instagram Story Highlights!). The result: pancakes that are perfectly browned on the outside and fluffy on the inside! For extra deliciousness, we like to serve these topped with fresh fruit, a drizzle of maple syrup, and more peanut butter (mmm, peanut butter!). Of course, we could also see these being delightful with vegan butter, sliced banana, or coconut yogurt! We hope you LOVE these pancakes. They’re: FluffyDeliciousHealthySimplePacked with fiber& Protein-rich (17 g / batch!) These would make the perfect lazy weekend breakfast or batter to make ahead and enjoy as you need it throughout the week. Who said pancakes couldn’t be a weekday thing?
