Pancakes are a lifelong favorite, and this version is packed with protein for a healthy twist. The batter combines self-raising flour, cocoa powder, and protein powder with fluffy egg whites, creamy Greek yogurt, and a splash of milk. Cooked to perfection on a pan, these pancakes are topped with a simple chocolate drizzle made from cocoa powder, vanilla drops, and water. Perfectly soft and satisfying with a hint of chocolate flavor.
