    Does anyone have a good recipe for pumpkin spice cappuccino or coffee? I tried making a mixture of truvia and pumpkin pie spice but was not good. I love Speedway Pumpkin Spice cappuccino but 8oz is 140. I usually mix 50/50 w/ regular coffee

    I eat these every couple of weeks!! Yummy and full of protein!

    Pumpkin Protein Pancakes

    Serves one (makes 3-4 medium-sized pancakes)

    •Prep time: 5 minutes
    •Cook time: 5 minutes
    Ingredients:

    •2/3 cup old fashioned oats
    •1/4 cup cottage cheese
    •1/4 cup canned pumpkin
    •1 egg
    •1 egg white
    •1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    •1 tablespoon honey
    Directions:

    •Spray pan with cooking spray and heat to a medium heat
    •Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and blend with an immersion blender until batter is relatively smooth and all ingredients are fully mixed
    •Pour batter onto the warm pan to form three medium-sized pancakes
    •Allow to cook until edges start to harden, about three minutes
    •Flip pancakes and allow to cook until batter is no longer runny, about two more minutes
    •Top with syrup, nutmeg or desired toppings and enjoy

    Sounds great! I make some similar with whey protein powder and greek yogurt. I like to grind the oats up in the food processor first to make oat flour. Sometimes i add oat bran too. Delish!

    I've been loving Eggo's seasonal pumpkin waffles lately... 100 calories each.

    I'd love to make my own and put them in the freezer. Anyone have a good, healthy pumpkin waffle recipe? Or do I need to stock up on Eggos? lol

    OMG - how is it I've never seen these? Have to go hunting at the grocery store this weekend!
  • tried the original entry for pumpkin muffins with cake mix and pumpkin.
    I Used Pillsbury sugar free yellow cake mix,
    1 15 oz. can of pumpkin,
    spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves).

    I mixed this together with just a little bit of water to add a little extra moisture. (no eggs, oil)
    I made mini muffins, so fill mini muffins to top (will not raise much)
    baked at 350 for 13 minutes.
    Made 36 mini muffins


    I made the muffins for a group of church members who were walking together, but had some left over, so put a couple in small baggies and put in freezer. Now I pull out a baggie, and enjoy a treat.

    FANTASTIC!! So nice to have a yummy baked good that is somewhat guilt free.

    Thank you missmayeb for that wonderful recipe. A sure keeper for me!

    I tried those Eggo Pumpkin Spice waffles...and WOW! So, when I eat Eggos I make a sandwich out of it for a breakfast on the go (normally this is Eggo NutriGrain waffles with almond butter and a little syrup). I didn't think the almond butter would go well, but I thought light cream cheese would be yummy. I had none on hand, but I did have some leftover mascarpone cheese.

    Amazing discovery!
    2 Pumpkin Spice waffles
    1 tbls mascarpone
    1 tbls pumpkin butter

    WOWEE!!! So yummy and about 310 calories!

    I use the torani sugar free pumpkin pie syrup, super yummy and 0 calories, (as long as you're ok with artificial sweeteners)
    For a cappucino I do 2 shots, 1 tbls syrup and 3/4 cup almond milk. Comes to a whopping 40 calories.
    They actually have recipes on their websites for all their syrups if you want more ideas.

    I have a really bad allergy to the added calcium in most milks, that's why I use almond, it is yummier with real milk.

    1 spice cake or carrot cake mix
    1 15 oz can of pumpkin (I usually use the pie mix and not the pure)

    mix them together and it makes 18 pumpkins. 109 Calories per muffin

    Bake at 350 for 18 to 20 min.

    They are very moist and delicious my kids love them, I usually have to double the recipe so they can snack on them all week.
