To start low carb days, you can make protein pancakes for toast, top them with 1/2 smashed avocado to let those healthy fats keep you full until lunch. I have a few “keto toast” options to reveal, this recipe uses a savory protein pancake.
- Toast 2 protein pancakes until heated through or to your preferred doneness
- Smash 1/2 an avocado, add black pepper, and sea salt to taste
- Spread smashed avocados over your protein pancakes
- Drizzle Sriracha or hot sauce
Ingredients
- 2 egg whites or 1 egg white + 1 whole egg
- 1 scoop protein powder
- 1 tbsp shredded mozzarella cheese or cottage cheese
Instructions
- Turn the burner to medium high, add coconut oil to your skillet, then add egg rings. Use square egg rings if you want it to look more toast-like. Let this heat up, while you prepare the pancake mixture.
- Add all the ingredients to your blender and blend for about 45 seconds.
- Pour mixture evenly into the 2 egg rings
- Wait until you see bubbles form on the top of your pancake
- Remove the egg rings and flip over the pancake
- Cook about 1 minute on the other side
- Smash 1/2 avocado
- Add black pepper and sea salt to taste
- Mix together
- Toast the protein pancake if you made it ahead
- Add the avocados from the step above
- Drizzle with Sriracha
Make a huge batch of protein pancakes on Sunday or Monday, after they’ve cooled, store in an airtight container or put 2 pancakes into sandwich bags to divide into portions for the week. Then store the sandwich bags in an container so all you need to do is grab and go everyday. Reheat the pancakes in a toaster throughout the week.
