As it’s officially Shrove Tuesday today, I thought I’d give you a little recipe which is not only filling and healthy, but also fat-burning too!
For those of you who like me, are following a clean eating lifestyle nowadays, you’ll be pleased to know that even though you may be saying ‘no’ to preservatives, sugar and sweet treats, there’s no reason you can’t have a pancake on Pancake Day, so here goes:
INGREDIENTS
2 eggs
2 scoops of protein powder (I’ve used Sunwarrior Protein – Chocolate flavour here)
dash of water
teaspoon of coconut oil
METHOD
- Whisk eggs in a mixing bowl
- Add the scoops of protein powder and a dash of water
- Combine the ingredients together so they form pancake consisitency (you may need to add a little more water, for example)
- Melt coconut oil in fry pan
- Pour pancake mix in pan and fry for 2-3 minutes
- Once your pancake starts to show air bubbles, pop pan under the grill to crisp up the top
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
If you’d like to add some ‘clean’ chocolate sauce and/or fruit like that displayed in the picture, here’s what you need to do:
CHOCOLATE SAUCE:
- Melt 2 Tablespoons of coconut oil in a pyrex bowl, over a saucepan of water
- Add 2 Tablespoons of Organic cocoa powder (I use Green and Blacks because it’s readily available from most supermarkets)
- Add a dash of Organic honey (or your choice of clean sweetener)
- Stir ingredients together until desired ‘sauce’ consistency
FRUIT:
- Chop a selection of fruit (low sugar fruits include: berries and cherries)
- Warm them through in a fry/saucepan
- Serve with pancake and/or with chocolate sauce above
TIP – For best fat-burning results, eat this after your workout!
