Ingredients:

225 grams white or garbanzo beans (drained and rinsed very well)

25 grams Kodiak Cakes protein pancake mix (or Birch Benders Plant powdered for dairy free)

110 grams brown sugar alternative (regular erythritol works too, you just won’t get that carmelized sugar touch, but still delicious)

1 tsp sea salt

4 grams powdered stevia

2 tsp vanilla

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

14 grams coconut flour

25 grams plain or vanilla protein (I used plain pea protein in mine)

40 grams Cocoa Bar Protein PB

150 grams egg whites

30 ml Almond milk

Topping:

100 grams, sliced strawberries

 

 

To make:

Blend all ingredients except your strawberries in  a high speed blender till smooth.  Pour into a lined or greased 8’’x8’’ baking dish. Top with your sliced strawberries. Bake at 350 for 38 minutes.  Let cool completely, in fact these are best chilled and eaten the next day once the flavors really come together and settle.  Top with whipped cream and an extra drizzle dose of  Cocoa Bar Protein PB and enjoy!
