High Protein Chocolate Zucchini Pancakes

These pancakes are a remake of simple banana pancakes. If you have ever had zucchini bread you will know that it has a similar flavour to that of banana bread. Although banana’s are good for you they can be very high in sugar (16.6g) which makes a large banana very carb intensive at 31.1g!

I keep the skin on the zucchini for the added fibre and use a zero carb protein powder. You could also substitute the chocolate protein powder for vanilla or strawberry.

Try adding some semi-sweet chocolate nibs or blueberries for variety.

Enjoy!

Hello and thanks for popping by! My name is Kim and I love to cook low carbs recipes, desserts, salads and soups. I am always on the hunt for new recipes to make over. My husband Paul was diagnosed with slow onset Type 1 diabetes (LADA) over 5 years ago so we were forced to change the way we did things when it came to cooking. We have always been a healthy and active family. I play soccer, we both run 3-4 times per week and walk 5km most week days after dinner. Our kids play soccer and rugby and are no strangers to a healthy lifestyle. Spending time in the kitchen is always time well spent in my humble opinion and I love to share my cooking successes with you here. There may be hiccups along the way but we keep going and I hope our passion for food translates to your kitchen. Feel free to explore and remember to check us out on Face Book, Twitter, Instagram and Flickr.
