Flat Skillet Pan

Ingredients

1¼ cup whole wheat flour for gluten-free, substitute 1 3/4 to 2 cups of an all purpose gluten-free flour blend
1/3 cup whey protein powder vanilla or unflavored
1/4 cup collagen peptides
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp sea salt
3 whipped egg whites about ~1/3 cup, whipping optional
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup water

Instructions

Start by mixing the dry ingredients in large mixing bowl: whole wheat flour, whey protein, collagen peptides, baking powder, and sea salt.
Whip the egg whites using a blender or hand mixer (I find a blender easier but either will work).
Add egg whites, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, honey, and sea salt to the bowl. Gently mix with a spoon until combined. Try not to over mix, some clumps are good!
Heat a flat skillet to medium heat. Add a small amount of butter, oil, or non-stick spray. Using a 1/4 measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, then flip. *See cooking tips above.
Repeat for the remaining batter. Serve with honey, organic maple syrup, berries, etc. Enjoy!
