Blueberry Matcha Protein Pancakes

Overview

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Yield: ~8 pancakes

These matcha protein pancakesĀ go perfectly with our Coconut Matcha Latte for your morning breakfast or afternoon snack.

We're always looking for ways at Be Tea Company to creatively use matcha in more ways than traditional matcha drinks, lattes, etc. These Blueberry Matcha Protein Pancakes are a hit in our households. They don't use too much sugar, half or a quarter the amount a lot of other "classic" pancake recipes, so the sugar doesn't outshine the other ingredients, especially our favorite ingredient, matcha!

Another great aspect of these pancakes is the extra protein kick with almost 8 grams of protein per pancake (we used Swisse Vanilla Whey Protein Powder in this recipe). The protein plus the antioxidants you get from the matcha and the blueberries make these pancakes something you can enjoy regularly without out the guilt and the weighed down feeling you probably get from regular pancakes.

We typically serve these with butter and a little bit of honey or maple syrup, but they would also go well with whipped cream, fruits like strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries, or jams made of any of those.
