Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- 1 tbsp. chia seeds
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. Stevia or raw unfiltered honey
- ½ scoop protein powder**
- ¼ tsp. cinnamon
- ½ tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 cup egg whites
- 2 whole eggs, pasture-raised
- ¼ cup unsweetened non-dairy milk
- 2 tbsp. maple syrup, grade B
- 4 slices turkey bacon, uncured & nitrate-free
- 5 pitted dates, chopped
- 1 tbsp. grass-fed butter
**We used Athletic Greens grass-fed whey isolate, vanilla
Directions
- In a small saute pan on medium-high heat, cook bacon until crispy. Removed bacon from pan, crumble into small bits and put aside.
- Add the dry ingredients—oats, chia, baking powder, Stevia, protein powder and cinnamon—in a blender or food processor. Pulse until smooth. Set aside
- Whisk the eggs, egg whites & milk in a medium mixing bowl. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.
- Take a paper towel to wipe the pan clean, then add 1 tsp. butter to grease. On medium-heat heat, add ¼ pancake batter. Add ¼ chopped dates and crumbled bacon on top. When batter begins to bubble, it’s able to flip.
- Repeat with remaining batter. Serve with maple syrup and grass-fed butter. To cut down on the sugar, mix the maple syrup with equal parts water and 1 tbsp. butter. Heat in microwave for 15 seconds, stir and pour over pancakes. Enjoy immediately.
