Protein Pancakes with Oat Flour

in

Protein pancakes with oat flour. They’ve become a staple of protein diets, and we find various recipes for them. Every food has its origins, but have you ever wondered if pancakes are truly American or of Anglo-Saxon origin?
You wouldn’t believe it, but the recipe originates from Greece where they were called teganites, referring to the type of pan they were prepared in, although without yeast.
As it passed through Europe, yeast was added, and with the discovery of America, it was spread, eventually becoming the recipe for delicious pancakes topped with maple syrup, jam, honey, or nuts.
I will also show you the procedure with the Thermomix.
