This Swiss Roll Pancake Recipe has been a favourite of mine since the beginning of my journey. It is really filling and could easily make a lighter breakfast for two people. It is a delicious way of getting lots of protein to start your day. I love making these for everyone at the weekend. You can add nut butters, fruit or chocolate spreads – whatever you fancy!

446 kcal / 31.5g protein per portion
Ingredients:
- 40g porridge oats
- 1 egg, beaten
- 100g fat-free Greek yoghurt
- 1 tsp cocoa powder
- Pinch of baking powder
- 100g vanilla-flavoured quark or protein yoghurt (I use Aldi 25g protein vanilla yoghurt)
- 2 tbsp reduced-sugar strawberry jam
- 100g strawberries, chopped
Method:
- In a blender, whizz the oats to a flour-like consistency.
- Add the egg, yoghurt, cocoa powder and baking powder and blend into a smooth batter.
- Pour the batter into a non-stick pan over a medium heat to make one large, thick pancake.
- When you see small holes appear in the top it is ready to flip over and cook the other side.
- Lay the pancake on a plate, spread the vanilla quark all over it and then add the jam on top.
- Scatter some chopped strawberries over the jam. I like to roll up the pancake and slice it like a Swiss roll!
TIP: I roll it up nice and tight, so I don’t add too many strawberries. Hold the pancake closed with one hand and use your other hand to slice it.
