Kodiak Cakes Zucchini Pancakes

I used both a quick spray of cooking oil plus a tiny bit of olive oil. The spray will ensure the cakes are stick-free; the oil supplies a great crispness and rich taste.

I substituted Kodiak cakes protein pancake mix for flour in this recipe to shave one WW SmartPoint.

Feel free to substitute flour if your prefer. Self rising flour will make the pancakes rise a little higher and faster. Plain flour works just fine as does whole wheat flour although the cakes will be slightly heavier.

4 PointsPlus (Old plan)

If you double this recipe and make a big batch of pancakes, you can keep the finished ones warm in a very low oven (250F degrees) on a foil or parchment lined baking pan.

I used medium high heat which may vary. the cakes should sizzle. Avoid having the pan smoke; if this begins to happen, remove the pan from the heat, reduce the heat, or until it stops, then resume cooking.
