– 1/2 c. old fashioned rolled oats (not instant), blended into oat flour – 1 1/2 tbsp. unflavored collagen protein – 1 tsp. monk fruit granular sweetener – 1 tsp. baking powder – 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice – 1/2 tsp. cinnamon – 1/4 tsp. salt – 1/3 c. milk (dairy or plant based) – 1/3 c. pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix) – 1 egg – 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

INGREDIENTS

Step 1

In a blender or food processor, add the oats and blend/process into oat flour. Depending on the blender/food processor, this should just take about 30-45 seconds to render flour.

To the blender with the oat flour, add the rest of the ingredients; collagen protein powder, baking powder, spices, sweetener, salt, pumpkin, egg, milk and vanilla. Blend all ingredients until smooth.

Step 3

For baking pancakes: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour out 5-6, 4" pancakes on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Bake the pancakes for 12-14 minutes or until the pancakes are firm in the center.

Step 4

For pan-frying pancakes: Preheat a griddle on medium heat. Lightly oil with avocado or coconut oil. When hot, pour out 5-6, 4" pancakes. Flip pancakes when air bubbles come through the center of the pancake batter. Lightly brown on both sides, then transfer to a plate.

Step 5

Enjoy pancakes while hot. Top with your favorite pancake toppings.
