Fluffy Chickpea Protein Pancakes

Love pancakes but hate the energy crash? These chickpea protein pancakes swap out regular flour for ChiChi—a protein-packed chickpea hot cereal—so you get fluffy pancakes that actually keep you full all morning.

Ingredients

• 1 1/3 cups Original ChiChi
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 eggs
• ~3/4 cup milk of choice (oat, almond, dairy—add little by little until batter is pourable)
• 2 tsp sweetener (maple syrup, honey, or regular sugar), add more to taste
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

1. Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.
2. Let the batter rest for 2–3 minutes (this helps it thicken).
3. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
4. Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake.
5. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook until golden.
6. Serve warm and enjoy!

Topping ideas

• Fresh berries, sliced banana, nut butter, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
