Seriously SO good!

I have talked about these Pumpkin Protein Pancakes before, but I just had to post the recipe again because it is just so delicious!!! I found this recipe on the Muscle and Fitness Hers website, but it's written by Emily Zaler, author of The EZ Whey Cookbook! Emily has a recipe for EVERYTHING that is clean, protein packed and delicious!! You can check out her website, http://emilyzaler.webs.com, for more info :) Here is the recipe! OH I've added the topping that I normally use when I make the pancakes also...

INGREDIENTS (for one serving)

1/2 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
½ Cup Oats (I like to pulse in blender or food processor to make oat flour, then use)
3 Egg Whites
1/3 Cup Pumpkin (Try to get an organic, no salt or sugar added variety)
2 tablespoons Ground Flaxseed
Stevia to taste
Pumpkin Pie spice to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

Blend all together. Cook in a pan, like you would cook a pancake :) with non-stick cooking spray

JADA'S TOPPING
1/4 cup Orange juice
1/2 tsp honey
1 packet stevia
1/2 small banana (sliced thin)

Put all ingredients in a pot. Bring to boil. Turn heat LOW and simmer for 5 minutes. Serve HOT over pancakes.

ENJOY this one :)

In Health,

Jada

  1. Hi Jada,
    Ok I wanted to make these in the morning but only have chocolate/mint whey powder. Is there anything else that might work to substitute for that 1/2 scoop of vanilla?

  2. Hey Barbara, I actually haven't tried them with any other powder except for Vanilla! I imagine that vanilla would taste the best with the pumpkin so I actually wouldn't be brave enough to try with another flavor LOL you can go be as brave as you wanna be...
