Snickerdoodle Protein Pancakes

Last pancake Saturday, I made one of my best pancake batches yet. And I've made a lot of pancakes.

Inspired by Heather and Katie and their recipes for snickerdoodle-inspired pancakes, I made snickerdoodle protein pancakes. Ooooh yes.

Look at that stack of healthy deliciousness.
When I have pancakes, I don't want 1. I don't want 2. I want a STACK of them

Ingredients:
1/4 cup whole wheat flour (you can sub with whatever flour you prefer)
1/8 cup (2 tbsp/half scoop) cinnamon roll (or vanilla) protein powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp (heavy dash) cinnamon
1 packet of Stevia/sweetener
1/4 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
1 egg white (this is actually optional and just for added protein. You can omit it and just add more milk)
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
tiny pinch of salt (don't omit!)

Directions:
Mix all dry ingredients completely.

Stir in wet.

Cook on medium/high heat. Flip halfway through (when it starts getting all bubbly!)

Enjoy with whatever you please!
 I recommend some peanut butter stuffed in between. But, when don't I?!
So. Freaking. Good.

Aside from peanut butters, I stuffed mine with plain Greek yogurt mixed with milk chocolate protein powder, and topped them with gingerbread "sauce" made with unsweetened almond milk + a sprinkle of gingerbread flavored Duncan Hines Frosting Creations. (You would think I was sponsored by them because I rave about them so much... I'm not. Promise! )
