Pumpkin Mini-Muffins

Video speaks for itself~

 

20-25g protein powder (I used unflavored BUYBULKWHEY)
35g old fashion oats
50g canned pumpkin
3 egg whites (or 2 liquid egg whites)
2g sugar free fat-free cheesecake pudding mix
cinnamon and splenda/stevia

Bake at 400 for 8 minutes

I think that I will try baking them at 350 for 11 minutes. It will give the oats more time to 'cook' without drying out the muffins.

Breakfast For Everyone-Pumpkin Pancakes

Just a quick blog post this morning. As I was getting ready to make breakfast for the kids, I decided instead of just whipping up their pancakes, I would weigh out what amounts I use and post it up. I make this one often, so I usually just 'eyeball' the amounts. Here is what I used this morning: Pumpkin Pancakes

3 egg whites 15 g vanilla protein powder (1/2 scoop) 30 g old fashion oats 60 g (1/4 cup) canned pumpkin 2-3 g sugar-free fat free cheesecake pudding mix dash of cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice splenda or stevia to taste (optional) This makes 5 pancakes, and even my kids will eat them!!
