Eating clean doesn’t require us to neglect our favorite foods. In fact, one of the best ways to stick to your nutrition program is to find delicious, nutritious recipes that you’ll look forward to eating.
While regular pancakes doused in maple syrup won’t get you closer to your dream physique, with the right recipes, you can make high-protein, moderate-carb pancakes that taste amazing.
We think they’re so good, you may never turn back to the classic sugar-filled flapjacks.
While normally finding great recipes takes a lot of creativity and trial and error, we’ve taken the guesswork out of it for you, and wanted to hand you the fruits of our myriad pancake experiments. We’ve also prioritized simplicity. When sticking to a diet, you can have the best recipes on the planet from a health perspective, but if you need 2000 ingredients and it takes two hours, you’re much less likely to follow it. You can make these recipes in just 10-15 minutes.
