CHERRY AMARETTO PROTEIN PANCAKES {Lean Version}

If you haven't noticed already....I love pancakes! I can't get enough of them. My kids love them too, which makes making a healthy breakfast for my kiddo's super easy. My husband asked me to make him some cherry amaretto flavored one's and of course I couldn't wait to start making them. It took me about 4 or 5 different attempts to get the recipe just right and now I'm so excited to finally share it with all of you. Enjoy!
