Chocolate Protein Pancakes (LOW CARB/LOW CAL)

pancake1-300x225

Ingredients:

  • 3 egg whites (if you're using liquid egg whites, it's about 2/3 cup)
  • 1 scoop (30g) chocolate protein powder or unflavored soy protein powder
  • 1/2 cup wheat bran
  • 1 tbsp 100% cocoa powder
  • TINY bit of baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and stevia
  • Handful of Shredded Coconut (optional)
  • 2 tbsp Almond Milk (optional)

Directions:

  1. Blend all ingredients together.
  2. Spray some oil in a pan, and wait till it begins to bubble.
  3. Pour the batter onto the pan (can make little ones or one BIG ASS one) . . each side will take about 1-2 mins to cook. Soon as it's bubbling on the top flip on the other side.

AND THAT'S IT !!

Wheat Bran is an INSOLUBLE FIBRE, which means it doesn't break down in the small instestine . . it just goes straight through the body (i've written an article on this in my blog) and because of that i don't really count the calories from it . . trial & error has been done on a few people and they haven't had an increase in bf% when including as much wheat bran as they like . . you CAN count the calories if it makes you feel better . .but either way it does help you hit the bathroom quicker than ever before !!

CALORIES with wheat bran: 250 cals (without toppings)

TOPPINGS: It's pretty boring on it's own . . I've used anything from Almond Butter, Cashew Butter, Raisins, Almonds, Berries, Ricotta . . anything will work !!

ENJOY !!
