‘I Tried The Viral Tofu Pancakes With 30g Of Protein’

Merle O’Neal, a YouTuber known for trying out viral vegan recipes, recently tested high-protein tofu pancakes that have been trending on TikTok. The recipe, created by Gigi Grassia, uses silken tofu, flour, plant milk, oil, and baking powder to create fluffy pancakes with around 30 grams of plant-based protein per serving. Silken tofu is praised for its versatility in vegan cooking, offering a smooth texture and mild flavor that can easily replace eggs in recipes.

O’Neal initially tried a modified version of the pancakes with added protein powder and apple cider vinegar, but the batter didn’t turn out as expected. After following the original recipe, she found success with a stack of fluffy, golden pancakes that had a soft center and clean edges. Despite concerns about the tofu flavor, O’Neal was pleasantly surprised and recommended the recipe as a fantastic option for vegan pancake lovers. With a high protein content and a simple preparation method, these tofu pancakes are a hit for those looking to boost their protein intake on a plant-based diet.
