Paleo Banana Nut Pancakes RecipeHaving a healthy diet is important to me, especially when it comes to properly fueling my body after an intense workout. Since starting a new fitness routine recently, I’ve been hyperaware of the nutrients I’m putting into my body and how they impact my workout performance and recovery time. I’ve been focusing on clean eating and, of course, making sure I’m getting enough protein in my diet to build lean muscle mass.

Here’s why protein is so important

Many mornings, I’ll throw ingredients in the blender for a quick protein smoothie, but some days (especially when my girls ask for them), we’ll make pancakes for breakfast. It’s so funny, I grew up eating pancakes from a box mix, but I don’t even think my girls know you can make pancakes from a box! I always prefer to make my own from scratch because A) they’re so easy to make and B) I can ensure we’re eating a protein-packed breakfast by adding ingredients like AllWhites® 100% liquid egg whites. Did you know AllWhites has no cholesterol or fat and has half the calories of traditional whole eggs? I was surprised by that, but now that I know, I’ll definitely be incorporating AllWhites in my recipes that include eggs!

AllWhites Egg White Recipes - Banana Nut Pancakes

Today, I wanted to share a delicious high-protein breakfast made with AllWhites that I love preparing after a hard workout – not only do these Paleo banana nut pancakes taste delicious, but the 29g of protein per serving makes it a great choice when you’re looking for post-workout recipes!

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup AllWhites® egg whites
  • 1/3 cup non-dairy milk (I used almond milk)
  • 1/2 banana, mashed
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • Topping
  • 1 tbs walnuts
  • 1/2 banana
  • Drizzle of pure maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Heat a griddle over medium-high heat and grease with coconut oil or butter (ghee).
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, add egg whites, milk and banana and use a whisk to mix well.
  3. Add dry ingredients (excluding walnuts) to bowl and mix well.
  4. Using a spoon or measuring cup, drop pancake batter onto heated griddle into 3-4" circles.
  5. Allow to cook until bottoms of pancakes are golden brown (approximately 2-3 minutes - you may also see small bubbles form on surface of pancake) and then flip pancakes to cook opposite side.
  6. Once cooked through, remove from heat and serve with walnuts, sliced banana and a drizzle of maple syrup (or honey).
  7. Enjoy!

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️
