120 grams sourdough discard, 120 grams 2% plain greek yogurt, 2 eggs
Zest 1 lemon and then cut the lemon in half.
Add to the bowl vanilla protein powder, sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, unbleached all-purpose flour, lemon zest. Squeeze half of a lemon on top of the batter. Mix until combined, it's ok if it is not smooth.
2 scoops Just Ingredients Vanilla protein powder, 30 grams sugar, 9 grams baking powder, 4 grams salt, 4 grams baking soda, 140 grams unbleached all-purpose flour, 1 lemon
Slowly add up to 1/4 cup milk until you've reached a thick batter consistency.
60 grams milk
Fold in blueberries.
148 grams blueberries
Spray the griddle with non-stick spray. Scoop ⅓ cup of batter onto the griddle and let it cook for about 5 minutes on the first side until lightly browned and bubbles are forming around the sides of the pancake.
Flip the pancake over and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
Top with berries, syrup, and butter.

Notes

The batter should be thick. If it is too thin the pancakes will spread resulting in a flatter pancake.

Not all protein powders are the same. If you do not use Just Ingredients (use code emilychristensen for 10% off) note that texture and flavor may vary.
