A little pumpkin, a little pumpkin spice, and a scoop of vanilla protein. These pancakes are an easy way to switch up your usual breakfast.
Ingredients:
- 1 scoop Vanilla Whey Concentrate
- ½ cup canned pumpkin purée (100% pure pumpkin)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup oat flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup milk, plus more if needed
- Pinch of salt
- Bbutter for the pan
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, canned pumpkin, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, mix the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Don't overmix.
- Let the batter rest for 5 minutes so the oat flour can absorb the liquid. If the batter is too thick to scoop, add milk 1 tablespoon at a time. It should be thick but spoonable.
- Lightly grease a nonstick skillet and heat over medium-low.
- Pour approximately 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake into the skillet to make about 10 small pancakes.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes, until bubbles appear and the edges begin to set.
- Carefully flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes, until the centers are fully cooked.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly greasing the pan as needed.
- Serve warm with Greek yogurt, cinnamon, and sugar-free maple syrup, if desired.
