Panquecas proteicas de abóbora (25 g por porção!)

Ingredientes

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (see note)
• 1/4 cup (60g) liquid egg whites
• 1/2 cup (113g) pumpkin puree
• 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• Pinch of kosher salt
• 2-4 tablespoons milk of choice (I use almond milk)

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Whisk together the protein powder, egg whites, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice and salt until smooth. You might have to vigorously whisk to get everything smooth.

2. 2

   Stir in 2 tablespoons of almond milk. Add more almond milk as needed to slightly thin the batter. (The batter should be thick but not completely solid.)

3. 3

   Preheat a nonstick griddle or large nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Spray with cooking spray.

4. 4

   Using a 1.5-tablespoon cookie scoop, pour mounds of the batter into the griddle, smoothing each pancake flat. Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another minute or so. (These pancakes need to be cooked longer on lower heat than traditional pancakes.)

5. 5

   Transfer to a plate and serve topped with grass fed butter and maple syrup if desired!
