Post Workout Pancakes (no flour, gluten, dairy)

Need protein? Try these high protein pancakes for your post-workout meal.
Mix in the food processor:
1/2 cup good quality rolled oats
1/2 cup mashed tofu
2 egg whites
2 Tbsp your favorite protein powder (we use a non-soy powder made of pea and rice protein)
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking powder (aluminum free)
dash cinnamon
non-dairy milk, enough to make a batter (approx 1/2 cup)

Mix the batter in the food processor and make the pancakes the usual way. Serve with sliced bananas, apple butter, or pure maple syrup.

Sports Nutrition Tips:
Your body uses carbohydrate for energy so make sure you fuel your workout with high quality carbs like fruits and whole grains. Post workout add some protein to your meal/snack to help repair "damaged" tissue which occurs during the workout.
