Dairy-Free (ish) Protein Pancakes
- 1/4 cup unflavoured soy protein powder (30g)
- 2 tbsp whole wheat flour
- 2 tbsp ground flax seed
- 1 tsp Benefibre (optional)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- lots of shakes of cinnamon
- 2 packets stevia (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup egg whites (not dairy IMO!)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond breeze (I would start with 1/4 cup and add until desired consistency)
Whisk together, and pour on a medium-heat greased frying pan. Add any extra fixings your heart desires. I like sprinkling flaked coconut and walnut pieces on top :)
Fluffiest protein pancakes I’ve tried yet!
It is imperative that one dips their pancakes and does not drizzle. It is my one rule for eating these ;)
Enjoy!!
The Great Balancing Act 
1/2…what.. of.. almond.. milk?
making these. probably for dinner.
Oops! Half cup of almond milk. Or real milk. Or whiskey if you swing that way ;)
mmmmmmmmmmmm i just stuff myself silly with these! the recipe makes SO much and they are so yummy. my batter was a little thin, i think next time i will do less liquid. i think it is because of the different altitudes? anyway, thanks for a winner of a recipe, susan!
My soy protein powder makes really thick batters as well, that probably had something to do with it too! Happy you liked it :)

Love this recipe Susan! What kind of soy protein powder do you use?!!! xoxo
It’s called “Purely Bulk Soya Protein Powder.” Unflavoured, I find it in the health food section of my grocery store. However, I think it’s a Canadian company: http://well.ca/products/purely-bulk-soya-protein-powder_22092.html
Made these pancakes for breakfast today, after a cold wet run. They were great. You sure get a lot for the calories – the nutrient stats are great overall. Filled me up nicely! Will make them again. Thanks for the recipe.
Yayyy!! Happy they could warm you up after a run :)
I made these this morning for the first time. Oh my goodness. You are a genius! These are the best protein pancakes! EVER.
Yummm this recipe looks divine! I’m making pancakes tomorrow for sure. Probably going to combine this with one of Heab’s recipes. I don’t think i’ve had pancakes since I was home. Tragic.
Looks yummy Susan. You must get your waffle maker back ASAP, and dip, no drizzle – got it! :)
OMG, I had a disaster with my cottage cheese pancakes (they normally work) this morning, and I was scared of fucking up again, so I found your recipe and tried it. I thought when making it the batter was a bit thin, but omg they turned out amazing, so flully and perfectly cake like in texture. Unfortunately I have not tried them yet, I will tomorrow and tell you probably how much i love them even more.
But wow thank you for giving me a use for my disgusting tasting soy protein.
How many eggs would it take for 1/2 cup egg whites? I really wanna try it!
One egg white is typically 2 tbsp… soooo four! :)
hi there…somehow found your blog today…love it! LOVE IT!
I had a ? about the nutritional values posted….this recipe makes HOW MANY SERVINGS? and How many of those pictured pancakes is “1 serving”?
they look divine.
Hey Maryann! The recipe is one whole serving, and that’s what is shown in the pictures. Makes 4 small-medium pancakes, and I eat them aaaallll ;)
hi..do you know if it will work with any protein powder??
thanks…looks yummy,can’ t wait to try them..
Hi Jen! It’s *best* with soy, as I find it takes on the same texture as flour when cooked. That way you can’t even tell there’s protein powder in there. Whey gets a little hard and “squeaky” when cooked. So does brown rice. Hemp and pea protein are okay and similar to soy, but might change the flavour a little!
Can i replace the protein powder with anything? I don’t buy it but I want to give this recipe a try!
Yup! You can replace it with equal amount flour. I’ve done it several times and it turns out just as great!
These were devine :) I added another scoop of vegan protein powder and 2 more tbsp of flax meal bc I did find it to be too runny. I let the batter sit for a few minutes before cooking, and they turned out fantastic! Thank you!
Happy you liked them! I always recommend adding the milk until you get the desired consistency. There are so many factors that can change it!
