Ingredients
- 2 scoops Herbalife Nutrition Protein Drink Mix, Vanilla* (or your favorite protein drink mix)
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice (or 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon + 1/4 teaspoon ginger + 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg)
- 1 cup low-fat milk
- 3/4 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
Here's how to make it:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together protein drink mix, flour, baking powder, baking soda and spices. Set aside.
- In a blender, blend together the milk, pumpkin, eggs, oil and honey until smooth. Pour over dry ingredients and whisk together just until dry ingredients are moistened. Batter will be thick.
- Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop up a scant 1/4 cup of batter and pour onto heated griddle (375 degrees F), spreading gently with a knife to about 3 inches in diameter. Pancakes will be thick. Cook for about 3 minutes, until nicely browned on the underside, then turn over and cook an additional 3 minutes until brown.
