Description

Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups (240 g) Kodiak Protein Mix
Wet Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups (360 g) milk
- 3 eggs, divided
- 1 teaspoon (4.2 g) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Kodiak Protein Mix, milk, egg yolks (separate the yolks from the whites), and vanilla extract. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the batter is smooth.
- Whip Egg Whites: In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites using a mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form. This step is essential to create the light and fluffy texture of the pancakes.
- Fold in Egg Whites: Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the Kodiak batter using a spatula. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites too much to maintain aeration for fluffiness.
- Cook the Pancakes: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for about 2 minutes on the first side until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
- Separating the eggs carefully and whipping the whites ensures the pancakes turn out light and fluffy.
- Use a non-stick skillet or lightly grease the pan to prevent sticking.
- Adjust cooking time depending on your stove and skillet heat levels.
- Serve with fresh fruit, syrup, or your favorite toppings for a complete meal.
