You could try using a non-dairy yogurt- they make soy, almond, and coconut based dairy free yogurt!0

Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve done it.
I’ve created the ultimate protein pancake recipe.
Pancakes are great. Protein pancakes are even better. For about a year now I’ve been trying to find the perfect pancake recipe; one that’s healthy, packed with protein, and amazingly delicious. I came pretty close with the original greek yogurt pancakes recipe, but I wasn’t satisfied with the high carb content. All the other lower carb/higher protein recipes I found online just didn’t taste as good.
Finally, an idea struck me. I decided to combine the greek yogurt recipe with a protein powder recipe, by replacing some of the flour in the greek yogurt recipe with protein powder. The result is a pancake recipe that has less carbs, more protein, and tastes even better.I swear, these taste better than the pancakes my mom used to make. I would eat those by the dozen, and they were about 1238484720 times less healthy than this.
Okay, here we go.
Ultimate Protein Pancakes
You’ll need:
6oz plain greek yogurt
1 large egg white
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup (about 2/3 scoop) vanilla whey protein powder
1 tsp baking soda
Anything else you’d like to add for flavor (I like adding in strawberries and vanilla extract)
In a bowl, combine the dry ingredients (protein powder, flour, and baking soda), and mix with a fork until well combined. In another bowl, combine the wet ingredients (egg white and yogurt) and mix until well combined. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet, stirring as you go. The batter should become thick. Add in any extras for flavor, and keep mixing until everything is totally combined.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Drop batter by the spoonful into the pan. Pancakes will expand as they cook, so don’t put them too close together. When little bubbles start to form all throughout the pancake, it’s time to flip it. Flip it a couple of times until it’s thoroughly cooked. Transfer pancakes to a plate, and top with whatever you’d like. They’re plenty flavorful on their own, but adding a couple tablespoons of syrup made them even better!
Makes 6 large pancakes. Nutritional information:
Calories: 314 | Carbs: 34g | Fat: 1g | Protein: 43g (!!!)
sounds delicious!0 -
These were SO GOOD. Seriously, thank you. I subbed the egg white for an entire egg because I wanted the healthy fats and extra protein and they turned out PERFECT
I used cinnamon swirl whey protein and it was divine. Topped them off with a pb marshmallow protein fluff (3 tbsp greek yogurt, 1/2 scoop pb marshmallow whey), so good! I'll make these again and again!
oh that sounds so good with the cinnamon whey and the topping!0 -

Those are some pretty fantastic numbers.
I have been struggling to find a good protein pancake for a long time. They always come out so dry and tasteless.
I will give these a try in the morning and report back!! (im 90% sure i have all the ingredients)
think i can use coconut flour over the all purpose?
I made these. Substituted coconut flour for all purpose. Added in bananas into the batter. It was actually surprisingly Good. Will be making it at least once a week! GREAT POST0 -
