Pancake day the right way

So we all know it, today is pancake day. And who doesn't love a pancake.
I also saw it as an opportunity to have nutella and peanut butter. I just had them on one, I stuffed the other with almond butter.
I made pancakes for everyone in the office so I did the traditional ones but I also experimented and did a batch of protein pancakes.
Stack of protein goodness
All I needed was protein powder, eggs, koko milk and bicarbonate of soda. I have to say now, they taste nothing like pancakes but they work as a great base for everything you would love on a pancake.

They were a little bit dry, I think I went overboard on the bicarb but the next time I reckon they will be perfect.
So maybe I could have been healthier today, I had the pancakes for lunch with yummy fillings but at least they were protein packed. That on top of lots of exercise (swimming, rowing, weights and a short run on the treadmill) I think I can let myself off.
Just for good measure, these are the normal pancakes I made, my best batch yet.

Check the recipe page for the method.
