If you feel the same way, I think you might want to give today’s breakfast recipe a try!
This recipe comes to you from my friend Caitlin who first told me about this recipe and promised me it tasted like a protein pancake. I was skeptical at first since the recipe is pretty basic and seems almost more like a sweet omelet than a protein pancake, but after one attempt, I was sold.
It sounds really funky, but if you like protein pancakes or if you’re looking for a protein pancake recipe that doesn’t incorporate dairy or protein powder, I encourage you to give it a go! I’ve tried it with family and friends and it gets rave reviews from everyone. These egg white and oatmeal protein pancakes are perfect for the whole family.

PinIngredients
- 1 cup egg whites
- 1/3 cup oats
- 1 packet stevia or 2 teaspoons sugar or a couple of drops of liquid stevia (<- my preference)
- Cinnamon to taste (I use a lot of cinnamon!)
Instructions
- Spray pan with cooking spray and heat over a medium high heat
- Stir all ingredients together until adequately combined and pour into pan
- When the pancake begins to turn white and the edges of the pancake begin to harden, flip and cook for another one to two minutes
- Top with syrup, nut butter, fresh fruit or slivered almonds and enjoy
Sometimes my pancake comes out looking more like scrambled eggs than a pancake, so don’t worry if that happens to you, too! The taste is still the same.
I like to eat my protein pancake after my morning workout (try this cardio arms workout — it’s a good one!).

Okay okay okay, add many times add I’ve seen u post these protein pancakes for breakfast, I think I’m finally going to make them 😉
Too funny! This is usually how I do mine. Sometimes oat bran over oatmeal, and sometime protein powder in a pinch. If I really need to pack a protein punch, sometimes I’ll do a combo of the two. Can tag you on IG with a few of my favorite go-to’s.
How many calories does pancake have?
I love having protein pancakes with bananas and chocolate! Ooh and almond butter!
My hubby was like “your omelet looks good” ?I was like it’s a pancake but it is! Haha and I agree- I never feel like having to deal with the blender in the AM!
I make it up the night before so the oatmeal soaks up the egg while and it is more like a pancake
is the pancake heavier or soggy??? That sounds like something I would want to do as the oats when I make pancakes don’t seem very digestible
Have you ever prepared any kind of protein pancakes the night before?? Either with bananas, cottage cheese, eggs, etc. Does the batter stay good overnight? I’m trying to get my husband to eat better breakfasts than Cheerios! Haha!
I finally made this after teaching a couple fitness classes this morning. Perfect!! I am always starving when I get home, and it hit the spot! I was unsure one “pancake” would satisfy my crazy hunger, but it was soooo filling. Thanks for sharing ?
I have been blending these in the blender before cooking them to mix everything up. They come out just like pancakes when I do! Taste is perfect too. I’ve even been tossing in a few strawberries for added sweetness. Mmmm….

What if you pop your dry oatmeal in a food processor before mixing it with with the egg white? I’m going to try that and see if I can accomplish a smoother consistency that is more like a traditional pancake…
