Protein Pancake Muffins From A Mix
Light and fluffy Pancake Muffins, made from a mix for the best easy meal prep breakfast. Customize with berries, sausage or other add-ins!
Servings: 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 2 cups plain protein pancake mix see below for substitutions
- ¾ cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoon maple syrup
- ⅔ cup plain 0% Greek yogurt
- 1 cup mix-ins of choice
Mix-in suggestions:
- Turkey sausage cooked and chopped
- Berries blueberries, raspberries, strawberries
- Bananas diced
- Chocolate chips
- Cheddar cheese and chives
- Bacon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F and grease a muffin pan (or use a silicone baking tray)
- In a large bowl, add pancake mix. Use a spoon to press the mix along the edges of the bowl, forming a well in the center of the pancake mix. To the well add, milk, eggs, maple syrup and greek yogurt. Whisk the wet ingredients together. Once whisked, gently mix in the pancake mix (it’s ok if this isn't done perfectly; it just helps ensure the wet ingredients are fully mixed before mixing them with the pancake mix).
- Divide the batter among 12 muffin cavities (about ¼ cup of batter in each). Top with mix-ins of choice and use the back of a spoon to gently mix them in.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly before removing from the tray.
Notes
Protein pancake mix can be replaced with an equal amount of regular pancake mix. You can also make your own protein pancake mix by combining 1.5 cups all purpose flour + ½ cup unflavoured protein powder or collagen and 2+¼ teaspoon baking powder.
Mini pancake muffins can be made by using a mini muffin tray and adding 2 tablespoon of batter to each muffin cavity. The baking time will reduce to about 15-18 minutes.
