Here’s what Scitec have to say:

11g of protein in pancakes! Not too bad. I have seen higher amounts in similar product but Scitec’s offering does have a fairly good carb/fat content.

The protein comes mostly from whey with a small amount of egg and casein thrown in. The carbs are fairly clean with the majority coming from Oats. The sugars are quite high at 4g though….

Taste

Phenomenal. That was simple. They really are delicious, it comes in White Chocolate Coconut flavour and it is out of this world. It’s so good that you don’t even need a topping on it.

They are really easy to make and have simple instructions that anyone can follow.

Side Effects

None

Price

£18.99 for a tub with 28 servings in. Each serving made about 2-3 pancakes for me depending on size.

Results

I mean what’s not to love here? Scitec have nailed the flavour here the White Chocolate Coconut is absolutely fantastic its so good I didn’t need a topping on it, although a chopped banana does make it even better! The nutritional content could be a little bit better but since this is a treat product rather than a daily staple that can be forgiven. Yes the protein could be higher and the sugars could be lower but it’s a damn sight better than an actual pancake. I think that this kind of product that encourages healthier options of cheat foods are great for keeping the diet on tract and even better for refeed days.

The price point isn’t too bad with each serving coming in at 67p. That’s 22p a pancake! With a price like that you really can’t complain about any of the slight shortfalls of Scitecs Protein Pancakes. One last thing…White…Chocolate….Coconut….Pancakes. 8.5/10
