Melted Choc Protein Pancakes

These melted chocolate pancakes are a sweet treat favourite for me. They’re a perfect post workout choice or just great when I’m needing to manage a sweet tooth craving!

They’re a simple way to get a good dose of protein and carbohydrate in whilst also keeping your calories quite low. This could be an ideal option for someone cutting weight but seriously craving some sweetness in their diet.
