GoNutrition Protein Pancakes Review


 Protein Pancake Mix

Overview
Here is what GoNutrition have to say:

GoNutrition® Protein Pancake Mix is an amazing, easy to make high protein snack providing over 29g of protein per 50g serving. Our Protein Pancake Mix combines 80% whey protein, milk protein and egg white protein with our Pure Fine Oats, medium chain triglycerides and flax seed to produce a healthy and nutritious snack packed with high quality protein, low GI carbohydrates and omega 3 from flax seed. These delicious protein pancakes are available in our acclaimed Maple Syrup flavour and Unflavoured.

Nutritional Information

Per 50g serving:

·                                 Energy:813 kJ
·                                 Energy:194 kcal
·                                 Protein (dry basis):31.2g
·                                 Protein (as-is):29.9g
·                                 Fat:4.0g
·                                 of which saturates:2.8g
·                                 Carbohydrate:9.7g
·                                 of which sugars:2.9g
·                                 Sodium:0.16g

30g’s of protein is excellent for a treat. The Carbs are surprisingly low aswell, I thought they’d be much higher. One slight downside is the 2.9g’s of Sugar but to be honest since it’s a treat and shouldn’t be eaten daily then I wouldn’t worry about it.

Taste
Excellent, it tastes just like a normal pancake and its so damn simple to make, you mix it in your shaker like a protein shake then pour it into the pan, flip, repeat, job done. I never made a bad pancake or had any problems at all.

Side Effects
None

Price
£8.99 for 10 servings (each servings made either 3 or 4 pancakes for me) that’s great value and a price I’d happily pay.

Results
Protein = Good.
Pancakes = Good
Protein Pancakes are the little bit of my life that has been missing until now. They are brilliant, perfect little high protein treats that can be enjoyed guilt free. How I’ve managed to get this far in my life without trying them is beyond me.

Anything like this makes dieting bearable, it makes you feel like you’ve cheated when it reality you’ve just force fed your muscles 30g’s of quality protein. It will help you avoid the unhealthy treats in your cupboard and will contribute to hitting your protein MACROs.  I can’t stress enough to you how much I want protein pancakes right now, I have a craving and possibly a slight addiction. 9/10
