These blueberry vegan protein pancakes aren’t just for the weekend! They’re made in the blender, which means less time from start to breakfast and they’re gluten-free. I topped mine with a peanut butter + maple syrup mixture (warning: it’s addicting), but feel free to top with whatever your pancake-lovin’ heart desires!

Preheat a medium skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray.
In a blender or food processor, add all ingredients except the blueberries. Blend until completely smooth, adding more liquid if desired for thinner pancakes.

Use about 2 Tbsp. of batter to form each pancake. Cook on one side until bubbles begin to form, about 3-5 minutes. Flip and cook about 3-5 more minutes.
