Ingredients for Protein Griddle Cakes (makes 12 Cakes):
120g All Purpose Flour
60g Whey/Casein Blend Vanilla Protein Powder
24g Coconut Flour
8g Zero Cal Sweetener of your choice
8g Baking Powder
150g Egg Whites
300ml Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
60g Sugar Free Pancake Syrup

Rest of Ingredients (makes 2 Sausage, Egg & Cheese and 2 Bacon, Egg & Cheese McGriddles):
4 Large Eggs
3 Slices Center Cut Bacon
6oz Reduced Fat Sausage
2 Slices 2% Sharp Cheddar Cheese

Directions:
1.) Add all your dry griddle cakes ingredients into a bowl and mix to avoid clumping. Then add your wet ingredients and mix till all is combined.
2.) Now preheat your pan to a 5/10 heat. Spray the inside rings of your silicone egg circles and your pan with non stick cooking spray. Add your circles to your pan and add 1/12th of your batter to each. Add a cover on top to help them cook evenly.
3.) Once your see the bubbles coming out of the top of your cakes, carefully take off the silicone circles and then flip the cakes. Cook on that side for a few minutes. Repeat this process for all your cakes.
4.) Once your cakes are down, spray your pan with non stick cooking spray and add your bacon and your 3oz sausage patties (you will form these on your own). Add to same preheated pan and cook till bacon is crispy. Sausage should be down right around the as well. Flip every few minutes till done. Add bacon to paper towel to help crisp up.
5.) Now take those same silicone circles and do the same process you did with the cakes. Spray with non stick cooking spray and add to your pan. Let them sit on the pan for about a minute to let the bottom of them warm up. This is important because this will make sure the eggs you are about to add to them do not come out the bottom.
6.) Now take your 4 large eggs and whisk. Add 1/4th of the eggs to each silicone circle and add a cover on top of the pan to help them cook evenly. Cook till the tops are only wet to the touch but not super runny aka your can take the silicone circle off and the top egg whites won’t go falling off the side.
7.) Once all is ready to go, add one of your cakes to you pan now on a 2/10 heat. Build your sandwiches with the pro tip being to brush some pancake syrup on the bottom half of the top cake to take it to the next level! Add cover on top of pan and let them heat back up for a few minutes. Then enjoy!

You are honestly a GOD SEND, I just started taking my boys to the track and pulling the reins in on their diets as well. But it’s not easy to do that with children AND have them like it. I am so glad I found your channel, covid has wreaked HAVOC on our diets/Exercise. This helps tremendously! Thank you ☺️

My dream McGriddle: Blueberry Waffles as the base, double Chicken Sausage, double Turkey Bacon, Swiss Cheese on top AND bottom.👍

You have no idea how happy this makes me, McGriddles are my favorite!! The dream McGriddle is the pancake buns with sausage, egg, cheese, hashbrowns, and a little buffalo sauce. Sweet, salty, and spicy all in one!

I’m Asian (Thai) and have never tried McGriddle (heard about it a lot), but my dream McGriddle would be the one with soft, moist pancake buns with juicy, but not greasy, sausage with a sunny side egg.

I just wanted to say that I am deeply sorry about Lilo, saw you since the day you picked her up, she’s in a great place now. Her cuteness would be in our heart forever, stay strong Zach.

My dream mcgriddle would be chocolate chip pancakes, with eggwhites, turkey bacon, and turkey sausage. I personally really enjoy the savory and sweet combination so this sounds amazing to me.
