Equipment

  • large mixing bowl
  • flat top griddle or large skillet
  • spatula
  • whisk
  • Measuring Cups

Ingredients
  

  • 2 packages Miss Jones Chocolate Banana Bread Mix
  • 3 scoops Dymatize Cocoa Pebbles Protein Powder
  • 10 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp vanilla bean paste
  • 1/4 cup coffee creamer (more or less, depends on consistency)
  • butter for greasing griddle
  • chocolate chips optional

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the bread mix and protein powder.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla bean paste.
  • Slowly add coffee creamer, stirring until the batter reaches a thick pancake consistency.
  • Heat a griddle over medium heat and melt butter on the cooking surface.
  • Pour batter onto the hot griddle.
  • Sprinkle chocolate chips onto the pancakes, if desired.
  • Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set.
  • Flip and cook until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve immediately or store leftovers for meal prep.

Notes

  • Add coffee creamer gradually. Different protein powders absorb liquid differently.
  • Do not overmix the batter.
  • These pancakes freeze well and can be reheated in the toaster, microwave, or air fryer.
  • We usually use Miss Jones Chocolate Banana Bread Mix, but the Pumpkin Bread Mix works great too.
