Ingredients

  • * 1 cup of rolled oats about 85g
  • * 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree about 120ml
  • * 2 eggs
  • * 1 scoop of protein powder about 30g
  • * 1/2 cup of almond milk about 120ml
  • * 1 tsp of baking powder about 5g
  • * 1 tsp of vanilla extract about 5ml
  • * A pinch of salt
  • * 1 tsp of cinnamon about 5g
  • * 2 tbsp of maple syrup about 30ml
  • * 1 tbsp of coconut oil for frying (about 15ml)

Instructions

  • Start by blending the rolled oats in a blender until it turns into a fine powder.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the oat powder, protein powder, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin puree, almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
  • Heat a skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease with coconut oil.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of the batter (about 60ml) into the pan for each pancake.
  • Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until bubbles appear on the surface.
  • Flip and cook for another 2 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining batter.

Notes

1. You can easily double the recipe if you're cooking for a group.
2. Always make sure your skillet is heated well before pouring the batter. This ensures a perfect golden crust.
3. If you're looking to make these Protein Pumpkin Pancakes with Oats vegan, opt for a plant-based protein powder and use flaxseed as an egg substitute.
