These Pumpkin Protein Pancakes are a great protein-packed breakfast. Perfect for fixing a pumpkin-spice craving!
Ingredients
  • 2 egg whites (or ¼ cup egg white substitute)
  • ½ cup oat flour (just oats ground up in a blender)
  • ¼ cup milk (I used unsweetened almond milk)
  • 2 scoops (or ½ cup) whey protein, vanilla (I used Whey Gourmet Naturelle)
  • ½ cup canned pumpkin
  • ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • ¼ tsp baking powder
  • pinch salt
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • 1 packet stevia (optional)
  • Syrup (optional)
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together all the ingredients.
  2. Heat your griddle or pan over medium heat (if you're using protein powder and cook on high, it will burn quickly)
  3. Spray the surface with cooking spray.
  4. Spoon batter onto pan (about 2 Tbsp batter per pancake).
  5. Cook for approx 3 min per side, until golden.
  6. Top with syrup if desired.
