Method

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish by spraying well with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Mix together the wet ingredients (almond milk, pumpkin, coconut oil, brown sugar, vanilla, and vinegar) in a large mixing bowl.
3. In a smaller bowl stir together the flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix with a fork, making sure to break up any clumps of protein powder.
4. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring with a fork or spatula until combined. The batter will be thick and lumpy, do not overmix.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Spread evenly with a spatula into a thin, even layer.
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center just comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
7. Slice into 8 squares. Enjoy with your favorite pancake toppings such as maple syrup, nut butter, or fruit (macros not included.)
