Makes 2 servings
All ingredients purchased @ Trader Joe's

Ingredients:

• ½ ripe banana
• 2 tablespoons canned Organic Pumpkin
• 1 egg
• ½ teaspoon Pumpkin Spice
• 1 packet unsweetened instant oatmeal
• oil spray
• ¼ cup Unsalted Dry Toasted Pecan Pieces
• 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup

Directions:

1. Mash the banana with a fork and then place in a bowl.

2. Add the pumpkin, egg & pumpkin spice. Stir well with a fork.

3. Add the oats and stir until the mixture is smooth.

4. Spray a pan with oil and pre-heat on medium.

5. Spoon a small amount of batter into the pan at a time. (You should get a total of about 8-10 small pancakes.)

6. Cook about 3 minutes until you see bubbles appear on the top of the pancakes. Flip over and cook another 3 minutes.

7. Place half the pancakes on each plate. Top each serving with two tablespoons pecan pieces & one tablespoon maple syrup.

• Alternative: We like the heartiness of these pancakes, but if you prefer a fluffier texture, you can place all ingredients (except pecans & syrup) in a blender to make the batter. Blend the oats first and then add the remaining ingredients.
