Method / Directions

1 - Prepare the Pancake Batter: 

In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup of Cinnamon Churro Protein Pancake Mix with 1/2 cup of water. Mix until smooth, but avoid overmixing to keep the pancakes fluffy.

Set aside.

2 - Make the Cinnamon Swirl

In a separate bowl, mix 1/4 cup of protein pancake mix, 2 tsp almond butter, 2 tsp cinnamon, and 2 tsp monk fruit sweetener. Stir until well combined into a thick swirl mixture.

3 - Cook the Pancakes

Heat a non-stick pancake pan or griddle like The Pancake Pan

Pour the pancake batter into the pancake pan, forming one or two pancakes depending on the size you prefer.

Once bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges begin to set (about 2-3 minutes), swirl the cinnamon mixture over the top of each pancake in a spiral pattern. 

4 - Prepare the frosting

In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt, a splash of vanilla extract, and 1 tbsp of protein pancake mix or protein powder. Stir until smooth and creamy.

5 - Serve

Stack the pancakes on a plate and drizzle with the prepared frosting. You can also add any extra toppings like a drizzle of maple syrup, fresh fruit, or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
