Ingredients

Pancakes
  • 2 medium ripe bananas
  • 1 egg
  • 125 ml (½ cup) milk
  • 60 g vanilla protein powder
  • 145 g (1½ cups) rolled oats
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • butter or oil, for greasing
  • maple syrup, to serve
Ice cream
  • 4 very ripe frozen bananas, chopped
  • 70 g (¼ cup) smooth peanut butter
  • 40 g (⅓ cup) cocoa powder
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. For the pancakes, place all the ingredients except the butter or oil in a blender and blend on high speed until smooth. Let the batter sit in your blender while you heat your pan up.
  2. Heat a large frying pan over medium – high heat and lightly coat with oil or butter. Once the pan is hot, add 80 ml (⅓ cup) of pancake batter to the pan. Cook for 2 – 3 minutes or until you see bubbles around the edge. Flip the pancake and cook until golden brown on the underside. Transfer to a plate, wipe the pan clean and repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the pancakes as you go.
  3. When all the pancakes are cooked, wash the blender and add all the ice cream ingredients. Process until thick and smooth. Serve the ice cream immediately with the pancakes and a drizzle of maple syrup.
