Protein Pumpkin Pankcakes

Alright ladies and Gentleman, I am so happy to introduce a new recipe to you! Pancakes! I have come across some GREAT alternatives to pancakes like egg white french toast and such, but when I saw a recipe for pancakes that had no flour in it I was as happy as a kid in a toy store! Now, I don't know about you but when I think of pancakes all I think about are carbs and more carbs. Flour, eggs, water with a pool of syrup! Don't even get me started on syrup. I won't touch it with a ten foot pole. The base of this recipe is from a guy I follow on Instagram (maityz). It consists of Oatmeal, egg whites, and banana. I've made both versions, the recipe just mentions and obviously the recipe I'm going to share with you. BOTH are very good! What I love about this simple basic recipe is it's sooo easy to alter, substitute. You can pretty much do what you want with it. Yay! This recipe is makes one portion.

Here's what you'll need:

Blender
 1/4 cup Oatmeal
3 Egg whites (Or whole eggs if you want)
1/4 cup Almond Milk ( Haven't tried regular milk, I don't see why it wouldn't work though)
3 tbsp Libby's pure pumpkin
Cinnamon
Non-stick spray

Directions:
1) Mix oatmeal, egg whites, almond milk, and pumpkin in blender.

2) Mix until smooth
3) Spray non-stick on a pan, pour mix in pan. When I made this mix I had to kinda pat the pancakes with a spatula to flatten them a little or spread them so they're larger.

4) Let cook till bubbles show throughout all the cake.
5) FLIP!

6) Let the other side cook.
7) TADA! ALL DONE!!

Note: For my last pancake I added some Cinnamon to the non-cooked side before flipping.

I make eggs and protein "frosting" to go with my pancakes. But top with whatever you want! :)

Frosting: 

Ingredients:
1/3 scoop Protein powder
1/2 tbsp Peanut butter
Almond milk

Directions for "frosting"

1) Mix peanut butter and powder together
2) add almond milk till consistency you like
3)TADA, all done!

So simple and quite delicious.
