![]() OK, so I love Pancakes and I love pizza so I try and incorporate different versions of these into my diet and into my training. So here is a vegan friendly version that does not consist of odd or hard to find ingredients that you can whip together in no time and they are pretty YUM too. Yee har. What you need: 2 cups of plain flour 2 cups of fortified soy milk (cause B vitamins OK, may need more just to get it to a good pancake batter consistency) 4 very level Tablespoons of baking powder 2 Tablespoons of sugar (carbs for your muscles OK) 2 Tablespoons of oil (what ever you got OK) A wee bit of salt to taste (1/4 teaspoon) 1/2 a cup of pea protein ( optional or put some good protein option on ya pancake after) Whack all the dry stuff in a big bowl, dig a little hole on the middle and put all the liquid stuff in, then mix her up! Heat up a non stick pan , maybe a lil oil before each pancake. If you want to get specific use a 1/2 cup measure for each pancake. Should make about 10 solid sized pancakes and they come in around 25gm carb and 10 gm protein per pancake. This is a great option straight after training to kick start refueling your muscles glycogen stores and is a great amount of protein to begin that muscle repair and building after a tough session. Alternatively take some for a long training session or to get ready for a training session if you don't want to stomach something heavy, they're low fibre so easy on the gut. I make them and save some for the next day! They have passed the kids taste test too.
