Perfect Protein Pancakes

Breakfast time! I was amazed at how well this recipe turned out. They do taste like pancakes, although they have a firmer (and in my opinion better) texture. They also have less than 1g carbs per serving. You top these with sugar free syrup or fruit and whipped cream and you have a really good breakfast.

Perfect Protein Pancakes (pg. 124)

2 eggs
1/2 c. ricotta cheese
1/4 c. vanilla whey protein powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt

Heat skillet or griddle over medium.

Whisk together ricotta and eggs until smooth. Add the whey protein, baking powder and salt and stir until just combined.

Drop by spoonfuls onto hot griddle, and turn when bubbles start forming in the middle like you would with a regular pancake.

These do get a lot browner than the average pancake, so be aware. If you turn them too soon however, the middle won't be done.
