pumpkin pancakes.

I recently discovered a pumpkin pancake recipe, modified it a bit, & now it's my favorite breakfast ... perfect for this time of year. Top with pure maple syrup, pair with cinnamon apples on the side, and you have a deliciously healthy [+ filling] breakfast to start your day off on the right foot!

::INGREDIENTS::
1/2 banana
1.5 tsp almond milk [i use unsweetened vanilla]
1/4 cup egg whites [i use Trader Joes cage-free]
Vanilla Protein scoop or packet [i use this]
1 tbsp pumpkin puree
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Mash up banana with almond milk using a fork. Slowly add in egg whites & the rest of the ingredients, mixing with a wisk. Spray your pan or griddle [i use Trader Joes coconut oil spray] & cook one large pancake ... or little ones. Recipe makes 1 serving. I make several at once & freeze for a much appreciated easy breakfast on other days.

*For the cinnamon apples ... slice 1 apple, sprinkle cinnamon on top, and microwave in a glass bowl for 1 minute.
