Gauri's Signature No Carb* Protein Pancake

Most of us know the effects carbohydrates have in raising our blood sugar, and when fat-loss is the main goal it becomes very important to control this factor as much as possible.
So these beautifully round(-ish) pancakes were actually the result of an experimental accident of a 'no-carb' breakfast I was sticking to at the time - and what a delicious accident they turned out to be!

So moist and fluffy, and the perfect portion size for a side dish or as a single serving pancake stack with plenty of room for desirable toppings!

 

This simple fool-proof protein pancake recipe base is now a staple in my diet for my low carb days. Not only do the all natural ingredients make these a super healthy breakfast option, add some Greek Yoghurt, fruit, and 

nut butters into the mix, and you have a perfect low-carb, guilt-free treat suitable for any time of the day!

Ingredients:
2 egg whites
1 serving Reflex Natural Vanilla Whey (25g)
30g almond flour (almonds ground into a flour)
50ml unsweetened almond milk
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp stevia (optional if whey is unsweetened)
1/2 tsp virgin organic coconut oil

1. Whip the egg whites until they become light and fluffy
2. In a separate bowl, mix your whey, almond flour, stevia, and cinnamon together
3. Gently fold in your dry ingredients with the egg whites
4. Gradually stir in your almond milk until a pourable pancake mixture has been reached
5. Melt and swirl a little bit of your virgin organic coconut oil in a flat pan on a medium-high heat
6. Pour 2-3 tbsp of the mixture (per pancake) into the pan and allow the base to cook until bubbles start to form on top 
7. Flip the pancake(s) and allow the other side to cook for a further 1-2 mins until the bottom has turned a light golden brown
