Milkshake pancakes
Plant-based, protein-rich and pretty darn simple to make, this recipe from Grounded is right up our street. It uses their Choc Protein M*lkshake as a base, meaning that the pancakes are dairy-free and packed with 20g protein – ideal for run recovery.
Ingredients
- 170ml Grounded Choc Protein M*lkshake (available at grounded.co.uk or in-store and online at Planet Organic)
- 1tsp melted coconut oil
- 1tsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp cacao powder (optional)
- Fresh berries and maple syrup, to decorate
Method
- Stir all the ingredients together until they form a smooth, thick batter.
- Melt the coconut oil in a pan over a medium heat.
- Once melted, spoon a large tablespoon of the batter into the pan. Cook on one side for 3-4 minutes, then flip.
- Drizzle with maple syrup and top with fresh berries. Enjoy!

Baked pancakes
If you’d rather be out running than in the kitchen flipping, this is the ideal option. Simply mix everything in a bowl, pour into an oven tray and bake for 25 minutes – just enough time to pop out for a few miles and return to fluffy pancake yumminess. Find the recipe here.
