Strawberry Shortcake Protein Pancakes

A healthy twist on a classic dessert! These protein pancakes are layered with fresh strawberries and a dollop of Greek yogurt, offering a deliciously satisfying treat packed with 22 grams of muscle-repairing protein per serving. The tender, fluffy pancakes boast a subtly sweet flavor with hints of vanilla, perfectly complemented by the juicy burst of ripe strawberries and the creamy tang of yogurt. Not only do they satisfy your sweet tooth, but they also deliver balanced macros—rich in complex carbs, healthy fats, and lean protein—making them ideal for post-workout recovery or a nourishing breakfast. Their light, melt-in-your-mouth texture makes each bite a delightful experience, while the fresh fruit adds a refreshing summer vibe. Perfect for meal prep, these pancakes can be made ahead and enjoyed throughout the week, giving you a quick, wholesome option on busy mornings. They’re naturally gluten-free if you use a gluten-free flour blend, and vegan-friendly versions can be created with plant-based yogurt and egg substitutes. For best results, ensure your batter isn’t overmixed to keep the pancakes airy and tender, and use ripe strawberries for maximum sweetness. Whether you’re fueling a workout or indulging in a guilt-free dessert, these protein pancakes are a versatile, nutritious choice you’ll crave again and again.
