Simple Protein Pancakes

After 3 failed attempts at making low sugar, no white flour pancakes - I finally found "3 Ingredient Simple Protein Pancakes" by PaleOMG (damned impressive blog, BTW.) 3 ingredients? Simple? Sign me up, that is my kind of recipe.

I left out the chocolate chips, but I smeared a little crunchy Natural PB on them in lieu of syrup. These are delicious and I finally got the golden brown "crisp" that I was missing in all of my other GF attempts.

I read some of the comments on the original blog post, and one reader suggested adding some spinach puree to the mixture. I'm definitely going to try this variation next time for a little added nutrition. As sweet as these are, I'm certain that you wouldn't even detect the flavor of the spinach if you aren't a spinach fan.

I thought 1 TBSP of butter in the pan is a bit too much to start. I would probably reduce it to 1/2 TBSP at first and add more after 3-4 pancakes.

I used this protein powder, but I also have a chocolate powder of a different brand that I might try next time.

PaleOMG will be on my reading list from now on!
