PUMPKIN PROTEIN PANCAKES

I have been craving pumpkin everything lately! And post workout I really wanted something dense, filling, and pumpkin-y! So I through a bunch of stuff in my magic bullet and came up with a great recipe for some pumpkin protein pancakes. They turned out delicious! Recipe- Put all of the following in blender, blend until smooth and batter consistency: 1/3 cup natural pumpkin puree, 1/2c. liquid egg whites, 1/4 cup quick-cook rolled oats (I used pumpkin flavored oats from www.MyOatmeal.com), 1/2tbs coconut flour, 1/4tsp. baking powder, pumpkin pie spice to liking, cinnamon to liking, 2tbs of Cellucor cinnamon swirl whey protein (any whey protein will do), 1/4 cup almond milk and blend!

Pour on to greased medium hot skillet, I made three medium sized pancakes. Flip when small bubbles form on surface. Top with sugar free walden farms pancake syrup, 5 calorie fat free Reddi Whip, and/or pumpkin spice whipped peanut butter!
