Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

These Pumpkin Spice Pancakes are the perfect sweet and delicious fall breakfast, snack or brinner (breakfast for dinner).


Pancakes – the ultimate weekend breakfast! Unfortunately, they often contain lots of sugar, fat and white flour. Try our healthier take on the classic – gluten-free, vegan and packed with superfood protein! Plus, they taste like pumpkin pie. Perfect for fall and winter!

The protein we're using in this recipe is the Plant Protein Mix, a blend of rice- and pea protein, lucuma, maca and banana. It contains all essential amino acids and 60% highly absorbable protein.
