Ingredients

  • cup protein pancake mix
  • 3 Tbsp milk (or milk alternative or water)
  • 1 Tbsp syrup (pancake, maple, or sugar free)
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp oil (coconut, avocado, vegetable)

For the Topping:

  • 1 Tbsp light brown sugar
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  • Spray the inside of the mug with nonstick spray oil, if desired, before adding ingredients. Add the pancake mix to a microwave safe mug. Stir or whisk in the wet ingredients.
  • Combine the brown sugar and the cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle over the batter in the mug. Gently stir with a fork to incorporate the topping into the top layer of the batter.
  • Microwave for about 1 1/2 minutes being careful as the mug can get hot. Enjoy as is or top with more syrup or whipped cream. Yummy!

Notes

If you're using coconut oil, make sure it is melted before adding it.
