Looking for a protein pancake recipe.

victoriavvi

One of my co-workers and I were talking about pancakes. She said she had the best pancakes in AZ and they were protein pancakes. Would anyone know of a good protein pancake recipe? Thanks!

I dont have one on hand but Michael Thurmond and The world according to egg face have tons of things like this you just have to look through them.

I make the eggface 5 min cakes w/protein powder and they are soooo good.

My friend made me the BEST oatmeal pancakes. The recipe was in Men's Health, and they were made with some combo of oatmeal, egg whites, splenda, and I can't remember if there was anything else important. We made one batch of apples and cinnamon, and one batch of peach. They were amazing, and since they weren't cakey like you'd expect a pancake to be, they made great snacks later in the day- if they lasted that long.

Thanks for the reminder, by the way!

I couldn't find the recipe I mentioned, but here is another idea-

Substitute: Oatmeal and cottage cheese for pancake mix

Here's a can't-fail recipe from The South Beach Diet. Mix together half a cup of old-fashioned oatmeal, a quarter cup of low-fat cottage cheese, two eggs, and a dash each of vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Process in a blender until smooth. Cook the mixture like a regular pancake.
Carbs Eliminated: 45 g per pancake

The Taste: "With syrup, you could never tell the difference."

The Zone Diet has a balanced pancake and or waffle recipe.
1/4 cup cottage cheese low fat
1/4 cup egg substitute or 2 egg whites
1/2 cup water
1 tsp. olive oil
1/2 tsp. vanilla ext.
2/3 cup oatmeal
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 pkt. equal or sweetener of choice

Toppings: 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce or 1 cup strawberries slightly mashed or 1 cup raspberries

in a food processor blend cottage cheese, egg sub., water, vanilla, and olive oil until smooth. Put oatmeal, baking powder and sweetner in food processor or blender and process until powdered. Mix the dry and the wet ingredients to form a batter.
as the mixture stands, it will thicken and it may be necessary to add more water, a tsp at a time to get a smooth not lumpy consistency. Cook in a waffle iron or pancake griddle. Takes about 4 minutes .

I do mine with 2 egg whites, 1/4 cup quick cooking oats, a little Splenda, drop of vanilla extract, sprinkle of cinnamon, mix it all together (by hand) and cook for 2-3 minutes a side on med high heat. It makes a good size pancake. I top it with 1/4 cup 1% whipped cottage cheese and strawberries or blueberries.

Cottage cheese pancakes. I've made them a couple of times now and they taste great.
Make sure you blend up the cottage cheese so there's no lumps.
Here's one that already been posted.

Bottom of first page.
1/2 c. cottage cheese (I use 2%)
1/2 c. egg whites (approx. 4 egg whites)
1/2 c. rolled oats
1 heaping tsp. baking powder
dash cinnamon (optional)
dash vanilla (optional)

I had gotten one after I googled it, it used whole wheat flour instead of the oats.

Found this on a google search . hope it helps.
I love making these on the weekend, i double the batch so I can freeze then and grab some out of the freezer midweek

3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup pastry flour
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
1 1/2 tps baking power
1 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
ground cinnamon (I don't measure, just dump)
1/2 tps fresh ground nutmeg
1 large omega 3 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
fat free or lowfat butter milk (enough to make a thin enough batter)

I made this recipe up on my own, mesurements aren't exact, I tend to eyeball some things.
I top my pancakes with light n fit vanilla yogurt, and fresh smashed berries.

ps: your house will smell like fresh baked cinnamon buns

May sound lazy, or distasteful, but I found a General Mills "Fiber One Complete" Pancake Mix. It has 6 grams of protein per serving and nothing says you can't add some good protein powder to it. I tried it and it is really good tasting and easy. I live alone and don't cook for anyone but myself. So easy-to-make and quick works for me;) Hugs, Denise:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :flowerforyou:

Wow, my post pales in comparison! What are the nutrition stats on this? If you don't have them handy not to worry. I can plug it into a little program I have to figure it. Thanks, denise:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :flowerforyou:

whoops, I was logged in under outdoorman's profile(my friend marv who I am trying to help keep track of his calories;) Anyway, that is me about the Fiber Pancake Mix from General Mills, duh!!! LOL;)

I use:

1/2 Cup Cottage Cheese
1/2 Cup Egg Beaters
1/2 Cup Oatmeal

Blend in a blender until smooth. Make pancakes in a skillet with cooking spray.

I make a topping by putting berries in a small bowl, fill with just enough sugar free pancake syrup to cover, and microwave for a minute or two until bubbly.

Yum!

Now I'm not at all happy with the protein shake I brought to work today for breakfast!

This sounds interesting! I'll have to try it since I like and use all 3 ingredients anyway;) denise

Yep, that's the recipe that I use too! You can also add some protein powder (chocolate or vanilla!). I like to top w/ natural peanut butter and strawberries or blueberries (sliced bananas is good too!)! Yum!

I just came from write a new post called zero carbs, low fat pancakes. They are delicious, zero carbs, low fat and high fiber and protein!:smooched:

made this for breakfast. My wife got to it before I put the syrup on it and she declared that it tastes like fried oatmeal. With syrup it is pretty good and filling, but it's not the same without. I didn't try the berry topping, but I definitely think that would have helped.

I use the cottage cheese recipe from vegitarian epicure but with ricotta cheese (low fat). There is only 2/3 cup flour and you seperate the eggs. They are like mini souffles. The stay with you all day and satisfy you before you have had many. They taste great with fruit. However the point really is any of the cottage cheese [ancakes can be made with low fat ricotta as well. It is so creamy tasting. I am going to try that with some of the recipes above.

I made these on Saturday morning and they were delicious. I used banana flavored protein powder and even my kids loved them without syrup!

Thanks for sharing!

bump, and for those who say "to taste" I am not sure what pancake batter should taste like so any other estimate-like a spoonful or a pinch or something?

Raptorwild

I was so excited when I saw AZ. There is a restaurant here in Tempe that serves protein pancakes that are awesome! They have blueberries and granola or oat meal for sure but not sure what else. I was hoping to find the closest recipe to add to my diary. Thanks for all the recipes I will try one and maybe modify until I get to the right taste.

I make the oatmeal cottage cheese pancakes above but use part skim ricotta cheese and a whole egg instead. My son loves them too. The stay with you all day.
