Pumpkin Protein Pancakes
BEST weekend pancakes! {Make an extra batch to freeze for the week}
This recipe is sooo filling & nutritious!π
(makes 3-4 medium pancakes)
Whisk dry ingredients: β£ 1/2 cup ground oat flour (oatmeal processed in blender or food processor until it becomes flour) β£ 1 scoop vanilla protein powder β£ 1/2 teaspoon baking powder β£ a good pinch of cinnamon β£ tiny pinch of nutmeg {Combine dry ingredients well}
Wet ingredients: β£ 4-6 egg whites or 2 whole eggs (your choice)
β£ 2 Tbsp unsweetened almond/coconut milk β£ 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract β£ 1/4 cup all-natural Pumpkin puree > I don’t add sweetener to this batter because the protein powder that I use is sweet enough. You may wish to add a pinch of stevia, a tsp of raw honey or pure maple. Sweetness factor is personal π
Directions:
1. Whisk wet ingredients very well with
a fork.
2. Combine wet and dry ingredients to
make a nice batter.
3. Lightly coat a medium-hot griddle with coconut oil or cooking spray and drop batter by ΒΌ cup rounds.
4. Cook until edges are bubbling and then flip and cook several more minutes or until edges are golden brown and pancakes are cooked through.
5. While your pancakes are cooking, you can drop 3 dark cacao chips on each one. OR, once plated, drizzle a tsp melted dark chocolate on top. (Optional)
