Peanut Butter Pancakes (and Jelly!)
This is a paleo peanut butter and jelly that I can stand behind. Peanut butter pancakes that don’t play. These THICC pancakes are a meal, perfect topped generously with my Sugar-Free Blueberry Compote.Enjoy on their own or serve with a couple of slices of bacon for the best start to your day. Just a fair warning: these pancakes are seriously filling and loaded with protein with about 14g of protein per pancake! You’ll be satiated for hours.
Kid-friendly, family friendly breakfasts
Jack and I have been having a great time cooking together during these Stay At Home days. I find it really important to give him more responsibilities and independence during this time, I think it’s grounding for him. He’s really taken an interest in preparing meals together and he helped me make and photograph this recipe, as you can see his little hands in some of the pictures. I hope this easy, flexible, and tasty recipe makes meals fun and simple during these crazy times. This was the perfect recipe to make with Jack: kid approved, super easy, and so. dang. good.
Variations of these PB+J protein pancakes
These peanut butter pancakes are what my gluten-free breakfast dreams are made of, and the best part? You can whip up this recipe in minutes with a simple blender batter that can be completely customized to what you have on hand and your food preferences. This is a great option if you’re trying to throw together something from your pantry item ingredients!
Easy alternative ingredient options:
- I used Paleo Pro Chocolate Protein Powder, but you can use any complete amino acid profile protein powder (whey protein or beef protein isolate based, vanilla or chocolate flavored)
- Can’t do Peanut Butter? Try cashew butter, almond butter, or sunflower seed butter.
- Don’t have Birch Bender’sPaleo Pancake Mix on hand? Just use 1/4 cup almond meal or gluten free flour + 1/4 tsp baking powder.
- For this recipe, I like 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, but you can use any milk of choice.
Pile high and top with my easy 2-ingredient Sugar-Free Blueberry Compote … breakfast is served!

These sound so great! Do you think flax eggs would work instead of the eggs?
