Ingredients

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

200 g protein pudding, vanilla-cookie
2 medium eggs
2 g liquid stevia, optional
100 g self-rising flour
1 teaspoon olive oil, for cooking the pancakes

The linked recipe page’s search snippet identifies these five ingredients exactly, including the optional stevia and olive oil for the pan.

Directions

Add the protein pudding, eggs, stevia, and self-rising flour to a bowl.
Whisk everything together well until you have a smooth batter.
Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons of batter into three separate spots in the pan to form three small pancakes.
Cook until the bottoms are set and lightly golden, then flip and cook the other side.
Repeat with the remaining batter until all the pancakes are cooked.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

The recipe snippets show the core method: combine the pudding, eggs, stevia, and flour, then cook small portions in olive oil, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of batter in three spots to form pancakes.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes 9 pieces and takes about 20 minutes total.

Variations

You can easily adapt these pancakes depending on what you like or what you have on hand. Add cinnamon or vanilla extract for a warmer flavor. Fold in a few mini chocolate chips or blueberries for a more dessert-like version. Top them with sliced banana, berries, nut butter, Greek yogurt, or a drizzle of honey. If you want a thicker batter, let it rest for a few minutes before cooking. For slightly larger pancakes, use more batter per pancake and cook them a bit longer over medium-low heat.

Storage/Reheating

Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm them in a dry skillet over low heat for a minute or two per side, or microwave them in short bursts until heated through. You can also freeze them in a single layer, then transfer them to a freezer-safe container or bag with parchment between layers. Reheat from frozen in the microwave or let them thaw overnight in the fridge before warming in a pan.

FAQs

Can I make these pancakes without stevia?

Yes. The stevia is optional, so you can leave it out if the protein pudding is already sweet enough for your taste.

What kind of protein pudding should I use?

The recipe uses vanilla-cookie protein pudding, which gives the pancakes their flavor and sweetness.

Can I use all-purpose flour instead of self-rising flour?

You can, but the texture may change unless you add a little baking powder and a pinch of salt to mimic self-rising flour.

Why are my pancakes browning too fast?

Your pan is probably too hot. Lower the heat to medium-low so the pancakes cook through without burning on the outside.

How do I know when to flip the pancakes?

Flip them when the underside looks golden and the tops start to look a little set rather than wet.

Can I make the batter ahead of time?

It is best cooked soon after mixing, but you can refrigerate the batter for a short time if needed. Give it a quick stir before using.

Are these pancakes good for breakfast meal prep?

Yes. Since the recipe makes 9 pieces, it works well for preparing a few portions ahead for busy mornings.

What toppings go well with these pancakes?

Fresh fruit, yogurt, nut butter, chopped nuts, honey, or a little maple syrup all work well.

Can I make these pancakes larger?

Yes. Just use more batter for each pancake and give them a little extra cooking time so the centers set properly.

Do these pancakes taste like traditional pancakes?

They are a bit different from classic fluffy pancakes because of the protein pudding, but they are soft, tender, and pleasantly sweet with a more filling texture.

Conclusion

Protein pudding pancakes are a smart choice when you want something fast, easy, and a little different from the usual pancake recipe. With only a few ingredients and a simple mixing-and-cooking method, they are great for breakfast, snacking, or even a post-workout bite. Whether you keep them plain or dress them up with toppings, they are an easy recipe to make again and again.
