Use a whisk to mix them together until they form a rich, creamy texture.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Prep the Cooking Pan<\/h3>\n<p>Next, coat your frying pan with some non-stick cooking spray. Afterward, heat it over medium heat.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Fry the Pumpkin Spice Protein Pancake<\/h3>\n<p>Add two to three tablespoons of the pancake mixture. Fry it for two minutes per side until bubbles form in the center, and the edges become crispy.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Adjust to Taste and Serve<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t be afraid to add a few healthy fruits and berries on top to make the meal more satisfying. We suggest throwing in some fruits, nut butter, or honey for a more decadent taste. Serve immediately after cooking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip:<\/strong> Store any leftovers in the refrigerator, or bring them with you to work as a healthy snack.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4600 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vshred.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Sliced-Pancake-Pumpkin-Spice-Protein.jpg?resize=625%2C615&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Slicked Pumpkin Pancake | Pumpkin Spice Protein Pancakes\" width=\"625\" height=\"615\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vshred.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Sliced-Pancake-Pumpkin-Spice-Protein.jpg?w=625&amp;ssl=1 625w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vshred.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Sliced-Pancake-Pumpkin-Spice-Protein.jpg?resize=300%2C295&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vshred.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Sliced-Pancake-Pumpkin-Spice-Protein.jpg?resize=60%2C60&amp;ssl=1 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>When Should I Eat My Pumpkin Spice Protein Pancakes?<\/h3>\n<p>Many choose to eat their pancakes in the morning. However, you can actually enjoy your pumpkin spice protein pancakes any time you want to. Since these pancakes offer enough protein and fats to keep you energized throughout the day, you can eat them at lunch or after a workout session.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of eating high-calorie junk like chips, candies, and cakes, opt to snack on some nutritious pumpkin pancakes instead.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vshred.com\/blog\/healthy-snacking-snack-options\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Healthy snacking<\/a> is a great way to stay in track with your fitness goals.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, eating these pancakes is a great way to mix up your <a href=\"https:\/\/vshred.com\/blog\/what-eat-after-workout\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">post-workout routine<\/a>. They have enough protein, fats, and carbs to help your muscles recover as fast as possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip:<\/strong> Try to eat them within 30 minutes of finishing a workout. This timeframe is the anabolic window in which your muscles are most susceptible to utilizing nutrients you feed them. During this short period, the body switches from a catabolic to an anabolic state. Consuming enough nutrients during your anabolic window is important to ensure muscle growth.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/media.giphy.com\/media\/p4rELshmDfdzAKbUFx\/giphy.gif?w=1170&#038;ssl=1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>These pumpkin spice protein pancakes are just one of the pumpkin spice <a href=\"https:\/\/vshred.com\/blog\/healthy-protein-shake-recipes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">protein powder recipes<\/a> to try this fall.
