Sundays are made for pancakes. Especially Sundays of long weekends. So bust out your aprons this morning and whip up a batch of these gorgeous, fluffy Coconut Protein Pancakes! They’re packed with 39 grams of protein per serving (that’s about 10 grams protein per 3″ pancake), but they’re still light and airy yet moist inside. That’s thanks to the coconut Greek yogurt and whipped egg whites in the batter.
Don’t forget the mango slices and coconut whipped cream on top! Cheers to the weekend 🙂
