Tips & FAQs
Can I make these pancakes gluten-free?
Yes! To make this Weight Watchers Zero Point Protein Pancakes recipe gluten-free, simply swap out the Kodiak Buttermilk Pancake Mix for a gluten-free pancake mix. The WW points should remain the same, but always double-check depending on the brand you use.
What can I add to boost flavor?
If you’re looking to enhance the flavor, try adding a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of nutmeg to the batter. You could also fold in fresh blueberries or a few dark chocolate chips, but remember to adjust the WW points accordingly.
How do I store these pancakes?
You can store these pancakes in the fridge for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them! Lay the pancakes flat on a baking sheet and freeze. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. They’ll last up to 3 months.
Can I substitute the Kodiak Pancake Mix?
If you don’t have Kodiak Pancake Mix, you can substitute with another high-protein pancake mix or even a tablespoon of flour (but note this might affect the WW points). You can also skip the pancake mix entirely and just use a little more Greek yogurt for a fluffier, eggier pancake.
How can I make these pancakes vegan or dairy-free?
This recipe relies on eggs and Greek yogurt for its protein content, but you can try a vegan Greek yogurt and egg substitute for a plant-based option. Just be mindful that this may change the texture and flavor of the pancakes.
