Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 50 g yogurt (vanilla or unflavoured)
  • 70 ml milk (soy, almond, or any milk of choice)
  • 35 g all-purpose flour
  • 25 g protein powder
  • 5 g zero-calorie granulated sweetener (or sweetener of choice, about 1 tsp)
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

Toppings (optional)

  • Fresh fruit (e.g., berries, sliced banana)
  • Sugar-free chocolate chips
  • Shredded carrots
  • Extra yogurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, or butter for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 180°C (356°F) to properly preheat while you prepare the ingredients.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In an oven-safe glass bowl, add the egg, yogurt, milk, all-purpose flour, protein powder, sweetener, and baking powder. Mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and well combined.
  3. Prepare Multiple Bowls: If making several pancake bowls for meal prep, distribute the ingredients into each bowl separately and mix each one well to ensure even cooking and flavor.
  4. Add Toppings: Customize your bowls by adding your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, sugar-free chocolate chips, or shredded carrots. Alternatively, leave the batter plain.
  5. Bake: Place the bowls in the preheated oven and bake for 20-22 minutes until the pancake bowls are set and lightly golden on top.
  6. Cool: Remove the bowls from the oven and let them cool for 5-10 minutes to set fully and avoid burning when eating.
  7. Serve: Enjoy warm with additional yogurt, peanut butter, maple syrup, or butter as desired.
