  3. Finish with any optional toppings you enjoy and serve immediately while the granola stays perfectly crunchy.

Chloe's Tip πŸ’š

For the best texture, always add the granola just before serving. It stays deliciously crunchy and gives the bowl the perfect contrast to the creamy skyr.


Easy Substitutions

Cookware

  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Fork
  • Whisk or shaker
  • Non-stick frying pan
  • Spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 30 g vanilla protein powder
  • 80 ml milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Optional Additions
  • Fresh blueberries
  • Sliced strawberries
  • Banana slices
  • Maple syrup
  • Honey
  • Plain skyr
  • Peanut butter


Instructions

  1. Mash the banana in a mixing bowl until completely smooth.
  2. In a separate bowl or shaker, whisk together the milk and vanilla protein powder until smooth, just like making a protein shake.Β 
  3. Pour the mixture over the mashed banana and mix well.Β 
  4. Add the egg and baking powder, then stir until a smooth batter forms.
  5. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-low heat. Lightly grease the pan if needed.Β 
  6. Spoon small portions of batter into the pan to make 5–6 small pancakes.Β 
  7. Cook for about 2–3 minutes, until bubbles begin to appear on the surface.Β

  9. Stack the pancakes on a plate, add your favorite toppings, and enjoy while they're still warm.


Chloe's Tip πŸ’š

Mixing the protein powder with the milk first keeps the batter perfectly smooth and helps create softer pancakes without any powdery lumps. For perfectly golden pancakes without extra oil, lightly grease the pan using a cotton pad or paper towel dipped in a little olive oil. An olive oil spray works just as well and makes cooking even easier.


Easy Substitutions

  • Vanilla protein powder: Use unflavored protein powder if preferred.
  • Milk: Any dairy or plant-based milk works well.
  • Egg: Replace with 2 egg whites for a lighter version.
  • Maple syrup: Swap for honey or a sugar-free syrup.
  • Peanut butter: Replace with almond butter or any nut butter you enjoy.


Meal Prep

Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a toaster, microwave, or dry frying pan before serving.

Chloe's Tip πŸ’š

Let the burrata sit at room temperature for about 10–15 minutes before serving. It becomes extra creamy and spreads much more easily over the warm toast.


Easy Substitutions

🍽️ Servings: 6 egg muffins (2 servings)

Cookware

  • 6-cup muffin tray
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Knife
  • Cutting board


Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 200 g cottage cheese
  • 50 g reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 red bell pepper, finely diced
  • 50 g fresh spinach, chopped
  • 2 spring onions, sliced
  • Salt
  • Black pepper


Optional Additions

  • Cherry tomatoes
  • Mushrooms
  • Broccoli florets
  • Feta cheese
  • Fresh parsley
  • Chili flakes


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F).Β 
  2. Lightly grease a 6-cup muffin tray or use silicone muffin liners.
  3. Whisk the eggs until smooth.Β 
  4. Stir in the cottage cheese, cheddar, bell pepper, spinach, spring onions, salt, and black pepper until everything is evenly combined.
  5. Divide the mixture evenly between the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
  6. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until the muffins are puffed, lightly golden, and fully set in the center.
  7. Allow them to cool for about 5 minutes before removing them from the tray. Serve warm or enjoy cold.


Chloe's Tip πŸ’š

Don't worry if the cottage cheese looks a little lumpy before baking. As the muffins cook, it melts into the eggs, making them incredibly soft, moist, and naturally higher in protein.


Easy Substitutions

  • Cottage cheese: Use ricotta for a creamier texture.
  • Reduced-fat cheddar: Swap for mozzarella, Gouda, or feta.
  • Bell pepper: Replace with mushrooms, zucchini, or broccoli.
  • Spinach: Use kale or finely chopped Swiss chard.
  • Spring onions: Substitute with fresh chives or finely diced onion.


Meal Prep

Store the egg muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Enjoy them cold or reheat for 20–30 seconds in the microwave. They also freeze well for up to 2 monthsβ€”simply thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
