    Enjoy the classic breakfast pair of pancakes and bacon in these high protein pancakes that are low in sugar and can be gluten free

    Bacon Protein Pancakes from Living Well Kitchen

    I interrupt my regularly scheduled program of crock pot week to bring you the perfect snow day pancake recipe {or half birthday breakfast}: Bacon Protein Pancakes!

    It was only a matter of time before I ended up doing this... combining two of my most favorite/most talked about things: bacon + protein pancakes.

    The result? Nothing short of sheer genius. Breakfast heaven on earth. Hallelujah {side note: hallelujah is a tough word to spell, no?}

    But yeah, so I decided to add bacon, one of my all-time favorite things ever, to my beloved protein pancakes.

    I really really enjoyed these, but I pretty much assumed I would. Pancakes and bacon are a glorious breakfast combination.

    Since it's snowing everywhere {but here}, that means you likely have the day off to make pancakes. I recommend making a big batch and then reheating them in the morning during the rest of the week. Seriously, take the extra time to make these pancakes {or any of these, for that matter}. You'll thank yourself come breakfast time.

    Someone the other day made a comment that they never make my protein pancakes because they don't like leftover pancakes; however, they eat frozen waffles for breakfast. I beg you to tell me the difference...

    I suggested that they freeze the leftover pancakes, and then they'd be just like those {not at all good for you} frozen waffles they eat everyday. Ha

    I doubt you'll think twice about eating "leftover" pancakes when you make these babies. Yes, I know bacon is not an everyday food; it's a sometimes food. But a little bit goes a long way; you are only using 6 slices of bacon for the entire recipe {serves 6}.

    It'd be sad to live a life without the most perfect breakfast pair ~ pancakes and bacon. Luckily, you don't have to!

    These protein pancakes are packed with fiber, protein {obvi}, and bonus: they can be gluten-free. Just make sure you use gluten free oats if necessary.
