Protein Pancakes

Posted on May 5, 2025

This is one of the few pancake recipes that makes a good breakfast.

Phoebe Liebling of Natural Nourishment don’t encourage maple syrup & fruit laden low protein pancakes for breakfast… she wants you to feel your best.

Anyway, this recipe can be either savoury or sweet depending on your preference. It’s super simple to whip up & has all the fluffy joy of a regular American Style pancake but is just bursting with goodness to keep you going all day..
