Chocolate Pancake/Cookie

[poos_n_wees]

Recipe courtesy of Jennie Hamilton:

Ingredients:

1 scoop PP

1/2 tsp baking powder

3-4 Tblspns water

Tblsp PB (to spread over the finished product)

Method:

In a small bowl combine 1 scoop of choc PP (In the blog, Jennie uses choco Biotest Metabolic Drive), ½ tsp baking powder and 3-4 tbsp water to form a thick batter. Pour on a pre-heated non stick skillet. Cook over medium heat just until the sides start to curl. Flip, let the other side turn slightly golden. Top with the tablespoon of peanut butter. YUM! :grin:

I made one of these for BF and it came out like a pancake (pretty big too!). Apparently the type of PP used matters.. so try with different flavours and brands and let me know how it turns out kthanx lol. He reckons it was a little on the dry side (may add PB into the actual mixture next time), but was yummo and filling :nod:

Macros (I used ON Rocky Road PP & only 10g crunchy PB):

P: 27g

I'm of the understanding that applying heat to protein powder denatures the protein?

Also, very sceptical of 181 calories when there's an entire tablespoon of peanut butter involved?

[biggurl27]

Yum that sounds nice! Will have to try that in a couple of months

Meh.

There was a good discussion about this a while ago :nod:

Sorry, I should've noted that macros were only based on what I used (10g PB).

Yum that sounds very nice.

Yes that dose sound very nice, I mite have to try that sometime

This discussions seems to only say that heating does indeed denature whey protein and can actually be harmful?

:pfft: says one side of the debate.

Aren't all proteins denatured somewhat with heat anyway? Even when the protein structure's unwound, aren't the constituent amino acids still constituent amino acids?

This is one of those issues that fails the Goldberg Test. If you ate nothing but freaking choc pp pancakes within a meal for a year, and then drank nothing but choc pp shakes within a meal for a year, your results wouldn't be significantly different.

lol i made vanilla protein latte (coffee) at work the other using pp instead of usual drinking choc (for mocha). Tasted horrid, definitely does something to the sweetner or something.

i know that to get the microfoam milk for flat whites latte's etc, the non burned, but slightly foamy milk occurs when the casein and whey proteins start being denatured.

[Gym rat]

That sounds yum I might have make me patch of them :shifty:

[Beef]

im keen :nod:

[becbec]

Mmmm, must try for breakfast tomorrow

[becbec]

They turn out pretty good, left mine in the pan a bit long at it was quite dry though, added a bit of artifical sweetner to my PP.

Used the cheap Nutratech stuff

[cantygirl]

Hi team, I tried this cookie tonight, mine was more like a crepe, i put a tsp of sweetner in it and spread a little sugarfree jam on it, rolled it up and devoured, so yummy. Thanks for the great idea.

I've been experimenting with this a bit lately. My first couple of attempts came out quite dry and dense, and required a wee bit of cream to make them palatable.

So after a bit of jiggery-pokery, I've settled on the following

1 Serve PP

1 tsp Baking Powder

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp (ish) Peanut Butter

3.5 Tsp water

Into the magic bullet, then cook over medium-high heat in a little butter. About 2 minutes on the first side, 1 on the other.

Top with lo-carb raspberry mousse

300ml cream

1 pack WW raspberry jelly

Whip til firm

makes enough for 3 serves and only adds 3g carb to the dish

Decadent

[cantygirl]

Geez, that cream would add a few grams of fat, im going for the low calorie option but bon apetite!!

[Ronin]

^^^ Yep, gotta love keto/AD

Still tastes great without the cream, but I reckon it would need something to make it a bit moister. Maybe an egg white?

Low fat sour cream might work.

Have you tried cottage cheese + ww Jelly? Divine! You make the jelly up with half the water, let it set then blend in cottage cheese till smooth.

[Ronin]

Yep, Jelly fluff is my last meal of the day, every day. I use normal amount of water though, as it makes up 2 serves that way, and is still quite filling. Also add 2 serves of whey (1 per serving).

And, tonight's effort on the pancake front:

Wewt, it looks like pink vomit! :pfft:

Nah, actually it looks like a giant belgium biscuit =P~

Wow, Ms Rose, u've managed to impress me once more with your knowledge of the "disturbing". Actually, I'm in awe of you, and think I've found my perfect match :pfft: Let's meet and do dirty deeds

(Although when it comes to the 2nd definition, one must wonder..."why?")

(Although when it comes to the 2nd definition, one must wonder..."why?")

Twas funny, we were testing new innuhnet firewall rule fathoms at the time, so searching for dirty stuff on work time was all in the name of productivity etc, I swear :shifty: And I'm exempt anyway 8) Yay for scat!

And so I wanted a picture of a belgium biscuit, it was innocent I tell you! But f*ck me, what do you know, not even belgium biscuits are belgium biscuits anymore :shock:

After I read it I told the guys at work, man I love watching them squirm. Typical IT nerds blushed and went all eeew, yucky etc, yet it's probably a secret fantasy of theirs to poo on a glass coffee table while the Mrs licks from underneath :pfft:

[cantygirl]

Different protein powders can make or break your cookie/crepe. So far Balance is by far my success, Pro-Active powder made a pile of burnt foam that stuck to my expensive pan. Im gona buy some w/w jelly and try that jelly fluff tonight, how much cottage cheese do you add?

[Ronin]

As for the PP, I just use chocolate nutra whey from bodybuilding.co.nz. I find it works brilliantly in recipes as well as being easy to mix in water. Cheap as, too.

Jelly fluff:

Make up 1 packet of WW jelly as per instructions (I find raspberry or blackberry best) and allow to set.

Add 2 serves choc PP and 1 tub (250g) cottage cheese. Use traditional, rather than lite if carb control is more important than calories. Blend well. Makes 2 decent serves (about 2 ramekins worth). You can make it up with half the water in the jelly, which gives a stronger flavour, but I prefer to use 2 cups, as it makes it more filling, and all you're adding is water.
