Disclosure: I received a complimentary packet of ProCakes for review. All of the opinions expressed in this review are honest and my own.
I am constantly looking for quick yet filling breakfast meal options during the week because my mornings are hectic. From dropping off 2 children at 2 different schools, to rushing in the doors at the office to participate in 7:30 am calls – it gets hectic. Most mornings I am running out the door after working out that morning (I tend to work out at 5:00 am or 5:30 am during the week) on an empty stomach. I know bad right? Also considering the number of meetings I have back to back, I probably will not get a chance to eat again until about 12:00 pm or 1:00 pm.
You can imagine how happy I was to learn about ProCakes. ProCakes is a high protein pancake mix with no added sugar or gluten. It also contains 20 grams of protein and 14 net carbs per serving.
These ProCakes are the brainchild of Caren Magill who at her heaviest weighed 200 lbs. She was looking for a breakfast food to keep her satiated and my friends, I think she did just that. You can read more about her HERE.
Where to buy:
You can purchase ProCakes directly on their website.
Cost:
A single 13 oz package of ProCakes is listed at $17.99. You can purchase 2 for $34.99 and get free shipping.
Review:
I followed the package directions which were very easy to follow. I used my griddle to make these. They took about 6 to 7 minutes total time to fully cook. Once done I plated and went to town. ProCakes are delicious!!!! I am not exaggerating, they have the same texture, fluffiness and taste and “regular” pancakes. The great surprise is these are filling and did not leave me with foggy head or low blood sugar after one hour of eating them. That is important to me because I need to eat food for sustenance and that will last me the majority of the morning while I sit on calls.
Pros:
- Nice texture
- Nice flavor
- Filling
Cons:
- I honestly do not have one
Rating:
I give ProCakes a 10 out of 10 stars. That is because they are delicious, fluffy, and everything you want a pancake to be PLUS they are filling you up with all of the protein to help keep you satiated. I think you will enjoy these as well.

I’ve actually never made a protein pancake before, but sometimes I want something after a workout that isn’t a protein shake

DD8 is not interested in food; she thinks breakfast is 5 blueberries or a few spoonfuls of yogurt. She is more receptive to carbs typically so I’d love to get some protein in her this way!

My Mother and I both want to lose about 10 pounds so we have been eating healthier. We’ve been opting for snacks that are high in protein and fiber and can honest tell a big difference in how filling they are rather than sugary snacks. Therefore, these sound like a great breakfast option for my mother and I.

I don’t eat much meat and don’t really like beans. I drink a ton of protein shakes. I already eat some foods with more protein in them. I love pancakes and getting a protein boost from them would be fabulous.
