Mouth Watering Caramel Banana Protein Pancake Recipe
"Having a good protein pancake recipe in your arsenal is excellent whether you're into fitness or not. I've said it before, and it's worth saying again: starting the day with a well-balanced meal is good for everyone. Pancakes typically fall into the indulgent category as more of a sweet treat. But, they can easily be transformed into a balanced meal. This is another recipe designed by my bodybuilder buddy from college. Huge thanks to Kari for putting it together so beautifully!"
