Low Cal Protein Pancakes-Huge stack 225 kcal w/ pic!
On my days off, I love to fix pancakes. I have modified a recipe I recently viewed on MFP, and it turned out spectacular! It has 28 g of protein, and for two huge pancakes, packs only 225 calories. I added sugar free syrup (Maple Grove-30 cal per 1/4 cup) and no sugar added apple pie filling (1/3 cup is 30 cal). They are very fluffy as well. The pancakes in the photo below are served on a large dinner plate, so you get the idea of how large they are. Photo was cropped by MFP.
Single Serving Protein Pancake
1/2 cup Bob's Whole Wheat pastry flour
1 scoop Spirutein Vanilla protein powder
1 tsp Rumford's low sodium baking powder
1/2 cup Egg Beater's or generic egg substitute ( I used Publix Eggstirs)
3/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Mix dry ingredients well. In a separate bowl, mix wet ingredients well. Blend wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Don't mix too much, just like any pancake recipe. You will have lumps.
I topped mine with no sugar added apple pie filling and sugar free Maple Grove syrup. Fantastic breakfast after a 2-mile run. They are very filling, so this recipe can easily satisfy two people, and thus the calorie intake is only half, or 112 kcal.

Just wondering about the calorie count as 1/2 C of whole wheat pastry flour alone has 220 calories per their website.0

I was hoping that the apple part was the recipe. Pancakes are low-cal anyway. It's the syrup that makes them a "watch out" food. That's interesting to add some protein to it. I usually go ahead and eat meat with my pancakes.
Did you get the apple topping out of a can then? I was thinking maybe using Truvia and making my own topping. I love Saturday morning pancakes, especially with sausage.0 -

Thank you, thank you!! Darn the incorrect entries in the MFP database. I chose the first entry for bob's whole wheat pastry flour, and it is incorrect. yecatsml is absolutely correct.
Drat. So now it is best as a recipe to serve two, which is a more realistic serving anyway. Good thing I ran so much this morning! Here is the new nutrition information for this recipe, which SERVES 2. NOT 1 serving.
I wish we could delete entries. Hope everyone reads this corrected entry.

Please see my corrected post about the calories. Also, I buy the canned no sugar added pie fillings. Only 30 calories per 1/3 cup. the syrup is only 30 calories per 1/4 cup.0 -
Bump..those look awesome0

I just slice an apple, add a tiny bit of water and lots of cinnamon and 'steam' in a pan. Sometimes I 'sprinkle' brown sugar VERY lightly while cooking. These are DELISH.
Haven't tried on pancakes. Just ate alone or better yet......as a topping for sugar free icecream. This is also awesome with a few chopped nuts!0 -
You can add ground flax seed and a little wheat germ too to bump up the fiber!0
