I’ll walk you through the recipe below and cover modification questions as we go.

  • yield: 4 MCGRIDDLES
  • prep time: 5 MINUTES
  • cook time: 20 MINUTES
  • total time: 25 MINUTES

Ingredients

  • 1 C (120g) Bisquick or Pancake Mix*
  • 1 scoop (31g) Vanilla PEScience Select Protein Powder
  • 3/4 C (180g) Skim Milk (or your choice of milk)
  • 1 tsp Maple Extract (optional)
  • 4 large Eggs, whisked

Instructions

  1. Mix the pancake mix and protein powder together before adding the milk and maple extract. Stir until no dry ingredients remain.
  2. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat with cooking spray. Once hot, add 2 Tbsp of the pancake batter in 8 small circles. You may have to cook in two batches. Cook until golden brown on the bottom, flip, and finish cooking for another 60-90 seconds.
  3. For the eggs, whisk an egg together in a small bowl. Heat a pan over medium-low heat with cooking spray. Add the egg and swirl the pan to spread the egg across the whole pan. Once the edges are cooked (10-15 seconds), use a rubber spatula to fold one half into the center. Fold the other half over the top, creating a rectangle in the center of the pan. Fold one end of the rectangle into the center, followed by the other, creating a square. Repeat for all 4 eggs. You can cook 2 eggs at once and cut in half to save time.
  4. Assemble and enjoy!
