1/4teaspoonsalt
Water or unsweetened non-dairy milkas needed
oil or cooking sprayfor the pan
Instructions
Grab a large bowl and whisk together your room-temperature eggs, pumpkin puree, and brown sugar substitute until everything looks nicely combined. Then, gently stir in the melted butter and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
Now, add the coconut flour, protein powder, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Whisk it all together until there are no lumps. If the batter seems too thick, add a tablespoon or two of water or non-dairy milk at a time until it reaches a nice pancake consistency (not too runny, not too thick!).
Lightly grease a large skillet or griddle with a bit of oil or cooking spray and heat it over medium heat. Once warm, scoop about two heaping tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Gently spread each scoop into a 4-inch circle.
Cook for a few minutes until the bottom is beautifully golden brown and the edges look set. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another minute or two until the second side is also golden brown. Repeat this process with the rest of your batter. Serve warm and enjoy your healthy, low-carb pumpkin treat!
