Pumpkin Protein Pancakes

Step 1

Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium to medium-high heat.

Step 2

To a blender, add eggs, pumpkin, oats, collagen, honey, baking powder, spices, salt and milk. Blend until pureed and smooth.

Step 3

To make the pancakes, you can add coconut oil or butter to the skillet if you want that crispness! You can pour the batter directly from the blender or scoop it out into a 1/4 cup measure for more uniform pancakes. Once you pour the batter into the hot skillet, take a spoon and slightly smooth it out into a larger circle if it seems thick. Add a sprinkling of dark chocolate chunks into the batter if you wish!

Step 4

Cook the pancakes until bubbles form and the batter becomes more opaque, about 2 to 3 minutes - then flip and cook once more for 2 to 3 minutes. You'll want to cook the opposite side a bit longer than you would traditional pancakes- these are more dense.

Step 5

Serve with syrup and a sprinkle of almonds annnnd maybe more chocolate. This will make about 8 pancakes!
