I remember when I first started my fitness journey, I literally ate pancakes for at least a month straight. I ate them in the morning, in the afternoon, at night before bed. They never got old. I came up with all kinds of different flavor combinations that were great, but in all honesty, you can’t ever go wrong with old classics. Nothing beats sweet simple flavors. Today, I thought I would share my basic pancake recipe. Tell me these guys don’t look perfect? Nutrient dense, no added refined sugar, fluffy, moist, and will certainly keep you going strong for the day! CORINANIELSEN-LIVEFIT-BLUEBERRYPANCAKES-1 It really doesn’t get much better than that… well, unless you add peanut butter in somewhere because well, peanut butter makes everything better… but that’s for another day! This recipe is SO macro friendly and you can easily adjust to fit your own nutritional needs. Less protein powder (will need less almond milk, more oats/carbs (more almond milk), add some fat in by mixing the topping with almond butter or chopped nuts right on top… really easy to change things around! Also, these hold up great if you wanted to make batches for meal prep. Simply cook and store in the refrigerator or freezer. Delicious, easy, and amazing breakfast for any day of the week! Not a fan of pancakes and you prefer waffles? No problem. You can make either!
