Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup nut milk
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup applesauce
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
- Add rolled oats, nut milk, applesauce, and eggs into a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Next, add protein powder, baking powder, and vanilla extract into the blender and pulse until batter is completely liquified.
- Then, whisk in the red food dye. You can add as much as you’d like. I added enough until the batter turned red.
- Heat a griddle to medium heat. Spray with cooking spray
- Next, pour the batter into 4-6 inch sized pancakes and let sizzle on the griddle (this recipe makes ~4 pancakes).
- Then, add fresh raspberries to the wet pancake batter and flip. Ensure they are cooked on the bottom prior to flipping. See my notes above for instructions.
- Remove from griddle and top with desired toppings. Enjoy!!

Notes
- You can store any extra pancakes wrapped in tinfoil or in an airtight container for up to a week in your refrigerator. Freeze in a large Ziploc bag with a square of parchment between each pancake to prevent them from freezing together. To reheat, microwave in 30 second intervals or toast in the toaster.
- I used Clean Simple Eats Brownie Batter Protein.
