Ingredient substitutions

Protein powder

  • Oat flour: Lowers protein and makes the pancakes more oat forward

Oat flour

  • Protein powder: Use less than the oat flour amount because it absorbs liquid strongly

Egg

  • Water: Use only if needed, the pancakes will be less tender and more fragile

Blueberry

  • Frozen blueberry: Fold in while still frozen to limit purple streaking

Baking powder

  • Egg: Extra beaten egg can add a little lift, but the pancakes will be denser

Salt

  • Sugar: Balances flavor but does not replace saltiness
