Green Tea (Matcha) Protein Pancakes


I absolutely love the flavor of green tea ice cream and with the potential health benefits of green tea, why not add it to pancakes?  And with their bright green coloring, it would definitely be fun to make them for St. Patty’s Day.

Green Tea Protein Pancakes with Bittersweet Chocolate Morsels



1/3 cup ground oats
1 Tbsp. wheat germ
1-2 tsp. stevia
¼ tsp. baking powder
¼ tsp. sea salt
1 ½ tsp. Japanese Green Tea Matcha
1 scoop vanilla whey
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 egg white
3-4 Tbsp. water
8 Ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate morsels
Combine all dry ingredients with the exception of the chocolate morsels.  Add egg whites, vanilla extract and water.  When batter is smooth, stir in chocolate morsels.


 

Spray a non-stick pan with Pam and heat over medium flame.  Add 2-3 tablespoons per cake.  When batter begins to bubble, flip to cook opposite side.  Makes approximately 3 silver dollars.  Serve with Sugar free syrup.
