These pancakes are a delicious and healthy way to start your day.
I first tried this recipe after my friend, Kristi, shared it on her blog (Keeping Up with Kristi) a while ago, and it quickly became a family favorite. Even my son, a notoriously picky-eater, loves this recipe. It’s loaded with protein and fiber, and as long as you don’t go crazy with the syrup, it’s pretty much a guilt-free breakfast (or brinner). Give it a try, and check out her blog.
Ingredients
- 16 oz. cottage cheese
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- 4 eggs
- 8 egg whites
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- Maple syrup for serving
- Fresh berries, bananas, or chocolate chips for serving (optional)
Method
In a food processor or blender, combine all of the ingredients. Pulse until well-mixed.
Preheat griddle and coat with non-stick spray. Using 1/4 cup of batter per pancake, cook pancakes until bubbles start to appear, then flip and cook for a few more minutes, checking regularly to make sure they don’t burn.
Serve with your favorite toppings.
