Science experiment
Michelle texted me at 9am with “bringing breakfast ingredients over - trust me.” Should have known I was in trouble.
Turns out she’d been reading about protein pancakes on some fitness forum and decided we needed to try them. The recipe seemed simple enough - protein powder, eggs, banana, oats. How wrong could it go?

The batter looked… questionable from the start.
Well, the batter looked like chunky cement mix, but we committed to the experiment.
Twenty minutes later we’re standing in my kitchen with a stack of what can only be described as rubbery brown discs.

Science experiment
Michelle’s being a good sport about it, but her face says everything. They taste like vanilla-flavored erasers. We ended up making regular pancakes and calling it a learning experience.
At least we tried something new. Next time I’m sticking to recipes with actual reviews.
