ingredients

for the pancakes:

  • ½ cup old-fashioned (or oats of choice)

  • ½ cup liquid egg whites

  • 1⁄2 cup nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt

  • ¼ C pumpkin puree

  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin butter

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • dash of sugar-free sweetener (if desired)

for the cinnamon swirl:

  • 2 tablespoons sugar-free sweetener

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon


for the cream cheese icing:

  • ¼ cup nonfat Greek yogurt

  • 1 - 2 teaspoons sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix

directions

*for the cinnamon swirl topping:

Step 1: Mix the Swirl

In a small bowl, combine all swirl ingredients and mash with a fork until smooth and well incorporated.


Step 2: Prep for Drizzling

Transfer the mixture to a piping bag or zip-top bag for easy swirling.


*for the pancakes

Step 3: Blend the Batter

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add all pancake ingredients (excluding the swirl and icing) to a blender and blend until smooth.


Step 4: Pour & Swirl

Pour ⅓ of the batter into the skillet. Pipe the cinnamon swirl in a spiral pattern, starting from the center and working outward.


Step 5: Cook to Perfection

Cook for 1–2 minutes, then cover and cook for another 1–2 minutes, until the batter is set and no longer wet on top.


Step 6: Repeat the Process

Continue with the remaining batter. This should yield about three 6-inch pancakes.


*for the cream cheese icing:

Step 7: Whisk the Icing

In a small bowl, whisk together all icing ingredients until smooth and creamy.


Step 8: Drizzle & Serve

Transfer to a piping bag or zip-top bag and drizzle over warm pancakes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
