Summer's "not so" famous protein pancakes

Because I've been somewhat of a health nut these past couple of years, I'd like to share with you an awesome recipe I've developed for one of my favorite breakfast foods - pancakes!! Who doesn't love pancakes??!! If you don't love pancakes, get the heck outta here!! :) The big problem with pancakes in the carb content and the sugary syrup added on top.

One big health tip I've discovered in all my health and nutrition reading is that sugar is the enemy and fat doesn't make you fat. Sugar makes you fat. Sugar is stored in your body and fat is usually in the form of protein and that doesn't store on our bodies. It's crazy how many people still look for low fat foods thinking they are doing something good for their health. Actually, most low fat foods have added sugars to make up for it. Ludicrous!!

I found a recipe for protein pancakes and I've modified and experimented with it and make up my own concoction of goodness. The consistency is a little different than most pancakes; however, it is almost just as good!

The recipe:
2 eggs
1 scoop Vanilla Whey protein powder
2 TB coconut flour
1 TB baking powder
2 TB xylitol
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup milk
sprinkle of mini chocolate chips (if desired) 

Mix all ingredients together in a medium mixing bowl. The batter will be slightly thicker than most pancake batters so take some time to flip over the pancake once you pour on the griddle.
The hardest part of this is the flipping part since they are thicker than normal.

Recipe yields 4 large pancakes.

I hope you enjoy these healthier, low carb pancakes as much as I do!!!
