In a high speed blender, add the rolled oats, protein powder, pumpkin puree, and milk, and blend until a smooth batter remains. If the batter is too thin, add more oats. If it is too thick, add more milk.
Transfer the pancake batter into a bowl and let it sit for 5 minutes, to thicken.
Spray oil in a non-stick pan and place over medium heat. Once hot, drop spoonfuls of the pancake batter in the pan and cover immediately. Cook for 2-3 minutes, before flipping and cooking for a further minute or two.
Remove the pancakes off the pan. Repeat the process until all the batter is used up.
