1mediumbanana(about 4 oz) very ripe (you can also use 4 oz unsweetened applesauce instead)
2largeeggs
1½cupsmilkI used Fairlife milk for an added protein boost
¼cupavocado oilor butter, melted and cooled to room temp
1tspvanilla extract
2½cupsKodiak buttermilk protein pancake mix*can also use their GF mix here
optional: fresh berries for topping
olive oil or avocado oil cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. and line a 10.5 x 15.5 inch sheet pan with parchment paper. Spray the parchment with the oil spray and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the banana until no lumps remain. Add the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla and whisk until mixed. If using applesauce instead of banana, whisk it in with the egg mixture.
Whisk in the protein pancake mix until just combined and pour the mixture onto the sheet pan. Top with fresh berries, if desired, and bake for 12 minutes or until lightly golden and set.
Slice into 6 servings and enjoy with your favorite pancake toppings.
Notes
*Frozen berries are not recommended for the topping. Go with fresh berries for the best texture.Reheating: Warm the pancakes on a sheet pan at 350°F for about 5 minutes covered with foil, or toast them in a toaster oven on the lightest setting until heated through.
