Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup protein pancake mix (I used Kodiak Cakes)
  • ¾ cup milk of choice
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 Tbsp molasses
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp cloves

  • Pinch of salt
  • Butter for pan

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the molasses, milk, egg, and vanilla.
  2. Add in protein pancake mix, spices, and pinch of salt. Mix but don't overtax (a few lumps are fine).
  3. Let the batter sit for 2-3 minutes to thicken.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat with butter.
  5. Scoop ¼ cup of batter and let cook until edges start to brown and bubble (about 2 minutes per side).
  6. Serve pancakes warm with tabs of butter, a dollop of whipped cream, cinnamon, and maple syrup.
