Pumpkin Swolecakes October 23 2018, 0 Comments

In the season of all things pumpkin, I'd like to share with you an easy Pumpkin Protein Pancake recipe to get you through the season. I can't believe I didn't post this recipe sooner. This is my go-to recipe when I'm craving pancakes or need to fuel up pre/post workout. They also make a great snack when traveling, or healthy breakfast on-the-go option, if you plan ahead. Let's get down & dirty, here's what you need:

Dry Ingredients:

1/3 cup rolled oats/oat flour (grind up rolled oats to create a flour.)

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

1 Scoop vanilla protein powder 

2 Tbsp Chronic Strength Protein Crumble (*This amount goes into the batter. If you're trying to replicate the pic, then you'll need more Protein Crumble to layer on top of your stack of Swolecakes.)

Wet Ingredients:

4 egg whites

1/4 cup pumpkin puree

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp pumpkin spice extract

1/2 tsp liquid stevia

1 Tbsp ghee (set aside & use to heat the pan with)

Instructions:

1. Combine the rolled oats & all dry ingredients; blend together to create a flour.

2. In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients & mix well using a wisk.

3. Combine the wet and dry ingredients & mix well-removing all lumps in the batter.

4. Heat up a small pan with approx. 1 Tbsp of ghee.

5. Spoon out batter onto warm pan. Cook on low/medium heat until you begin to see bubbles appear on the surface, approximately 2 minutes, then flip for another minute or two until golden brown.

6. Once golden brown, remove from pan & top with extra Chronic Protein Crumble or topping of choice. Enjoy!
