Last night I did something totally indulgent.
Last night, I took a book to bed – and it wasn’t one filled with coding mambo jumbo (like I’ve been doing since I started that web development course).
Last night it was a succulent, totally fictitious, murder-mystery that was a pleasure to indulge in – at least, until my eyelids decided not to co-operate anymore.
I find it funny how most times a textbook (no matter how badly I might actually want to learn what am reading) manages to put me to sleep.
But, when it comes to a murder-mystery, I resort to all sorts of shenanigans to try to stay awake to read just one more page. Please tell me am not the only one…?!
Anyhoot…speaking of indulging…
It’s been quite awhile since we had pancakes around here.
So, when I finally opened up the bottle of Oregon Growers’ Marionberry Preserves I brought back from our trip to Oregon earlier in June, I figured it would be more indulgent to add the preserves into the pancake batter as opposed to on the pancakes.
Now, I’ve grown up eating pancakes smeared with jams and preserves – which are accompanied by the odd drizzle of golden syrup or honey from time to time. So, adding the preserves into the batter simply made sense. Also, you will notice that sugar isn’t listed as one of the ingredients because between the preserves and Premier Protein‘s Vanilla Shake, sugar isn’t really necessary. Of course, with Premier Protein in these pancakes – these pancakes are not merely indulgent but protein packed as well. I also kept these gluten-free by using brown rice flour in them, but, please feel free to sub regular brown flour if preferred.

They look delectable with that whipped coconut cream!
So I have to admit that I’m not familiar with marionberries. And I thought I knew all about summer berries! I just googled them, and I see that they are similar to blackberries. And, well, blackberries might just be my favorite summer fruit ever! (Even though it’s hard to pick just one.) I love the idea of using the preserves and the protein shake in the batter here. Those pancakes sound super decadent and super delicious…and perfect for serving on the morning of the 4th! I hope you gals have a great holiday down there, Shashi! 🙂
I love these! not only they are packed with protein! but look so good, fluffy and flavorful!
These pancakes are so nutritious..like the idea of using brown rice flour to make them. Great Shots as well,
That coconut cream sounds delish, I’d love a plate of these for breakfast!
So, I was sold as soon as you said “pancakes” but now after reading the recipe, I am definitely going to have to try these. Where do I find Marion berries in South Florida, though…
I am SO with you on the murder mystery front – I haven’t read a novel in like 10+ years because I get SO lost in them! On a recent month long road trip I had to keep popping into charity shops to swap out my just finished novel for another – I was in fiction heaven!

These pancakes look so fluffy! I love that they are gluten free and protein packed. I’ll be trying these soon and I may make them for my grandfather. We are trying to sneak some extra protein in wherever we can.
What delicious looking pancakes Shashi! Wow!!
I think I’d struggle to find Marionberries in Scotland. However we do have Blackberries. And in abundance at the moment and I read that Marionberries are similar so I could make these. 😉
I really can’t resist pancakes, I have never made any with protein shake, but they look perfect!I have never heard of Marionberries, I have to google that. 🙂
You are not the only one! Usually when I do read a book, it’s in bed and it always makes me sleepy even though I do enjoy what I’m ready. Funny thing, right?
I’ve never heard of marionberry before, but this stack looks fantastic, Shashi!! What a way to start the day! Plus, the protein in these pancakes gives ’em a little somethin’ somethin’. Keeps the little hunger bug away for al little bit 😉
Hope you have a fantastic holiday, my friend! xo
The most unusual and interesting ingredient I have added to pancakes is Prosecco
I have added ghee and peanut butter powder to my oldest son’s pancakes because he’s trying to gain weight.
I have never added anything unusual in pancakes before.
these look fabulous! I love pancakes. I think the most unusual ingredients I have added would be things like flax seed, almond flower, or protein powder
It’s not weird we added banana and cinnamon in it.
Not really unusual, but I’ve added cinnamon to my pancake mix.
When I was younger, I could easily spend a night reading a book. Either books ain’t fascinating anymore or I’m too old, but I don’t remember doing it for ages. But these pancakes look and sound quite fascinating, Shashi! Our neighbors have a huge marionberry tree with the berries ripening, and I’ve noticed they aren’t picking the berries. Do you think I should help them? 😉
Hot pepper jelly adds zing!
You need to read a textbook about murder-mysteries. 🙂 Anyway, this looks great — tons of flavor and nutrition. Thanks!
Peanut butter!
i love pancakes omg its my biggest weakness. i think the weirdest thing i’ve ever added to my pancakes was carrots lol. i mean when your a bodybuilding competitor and your extremely depleted and haven’t had anything “regular” you used to have like for example carrots. i haven’t had carrots in 2 years crazy but true. you start experimenting with foods. because you crave them of course. so i thought ok i can’t have a carrot cake so i’ll try carrot pancakes. i must say it wasn’t bad at all lol
I’ve never heard of marionberry! I like to put cinnamon and raisins in my pancakes.
Probably the brown rice flour!
Loving that big stack!! We have never tried this type of preserves before but sounds delicious. A murder mystery sounds much more interesting than web developing course, for sure.
I have added loads of different ingredients, including bananas and walnuts, raisins, Apple cinnamon pie filling, and maple with bacon… I love trying new things!!
I have added bacon and scrambled eggs. I’m not sure if its considered unusual but it was to my kids.
I added blueberry pie filling and sour cream.
I heart marionberries, and I love that you added them to the batter — I much prefer my pancake and waffle fruit inside. Other than that I’m a purist. 🙂
I’ve replaced whole milk with chocolate milk and added chocolate chips to mine before!
What a gorgeous stack of pancakes! Let me tell you, I’m eating my bowl of cereal right now and it doesn’t look anywhere near as appetizing as it did when I saw these! Love that coconut cream topping! I’m seriously drooling over it! I hope you and your family are having a wonderful week so far, Shashi! Hugs. Pinned, of course!
I have never really branched out and put any unusual ingredients in my pancakes! I just usually add cinnamon and some vanilla to mine, and have tried blueberries, strawberries and bananas. Oh and I have substituted hazelnut coffee creamer instead of milk and it was absolutely delicious! I am definitely going to try your recipe as well, yummy! 🙂
I always add chocolate chips
Green apples, but I am not sure that is very unusual.
I’ve added mashed bananas to pancake batter for yummy pancakes.
we add peanut butter to our pancakes, my sister adds onions to her pancakes, and my dad loves pinto beans poured on his pancakes instead of syrup or anything…….
I’ve added crushed up basil in my pancakes.
My 14 year old made pancakes this past weekend and put sausage AND chocolate chips in them. Too weird for me so I passed!
i really love oats in mine so u can pair the finished ones with any fruit but other seeds or nuts would be good too and poppy seeds are my fav
I haven’t tried anything ok crazy but I have used oat flour.
I tried cinnamon because I’m not that brave to try different foods.
I haven’t used really unusual ingredients in pancakes other then I have made a more savory kind with herbs and cheese and sometimes add chia seeds to the more traditional pancake flavors.
