Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10-inch ovenproof skillet on the middle rack while the oven heats.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and almond milk until well combined.
Add the whey protein powder, whole wheat flour, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the egg mixture and whisk until smooth. Ensure no lumps remain.
Carefully remove the heated skillet from the oven and add the unsalted butter. Swirl the skillet to coat it evenly as the butter melts.
Once the butter has melted completely and is bubbling, pour the pancake batter into the skillet.
Place the skillet back in the oven and bake the pancake for about 20 minutes, or until it is puffed and golden brown around the edges.
While the pancake is baking, prepare the toppings: mix Greek yogurt with a tablespoon of maple syrup and set aside.
When the pancake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. It will deflate as it cools, creating a crater perfect for toppings.
Top the pancake with the Greek yogurt mixture, fresh berries, and drizzle the remaining maple syrup over the top.
Slice into quarters and serve immediately for a delicious, high-protein breakfast treat.
