I've said it before...mornings around our house are hectic.  I like to plan ahead for breakfast so no one is without food when rushing out the door.  I do a lot of batch cooking and these Vanilla Protein Pancakes are one thing I make every week.  My husband and son love them and I like knowing they are getting a great balance of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats first thing which sets the right tone for the day.  I use Birch Benders Paleo Pancake Mix for these pancakes because I love the ingredients and the flavor but you can substitute whatever mix works for you.

• ¼ cup Vanilla protein powder

Add whatever toppings you desire.
