These are by far the easiest and most delicious protein pancakes without the use of protein powder that I have found!!

Ingredients (per serving):
1/4 cup egg whites (approx 2)
1/4 cup 1% cottage cheese (I prefer Friendship whipped)
1/4 cup quick cooking oatmeal (not instant)

Use the magic bullet or blender to blend all of this together until it is pancake batter consistency. I add a sprinkle of cinnamon in there too.

Heat up a pan, pour batter in, wait until it bubbles, flip, and wait until done.

Serve with a tbsp of sugar free preserves or fresh fruit if desired.

Per good size pancake:

Cals = 150 kcal
Carbs: 15 g
Fat = 2 g
Protein = 18 g
Sodium = 281 g

A perfect breakfast and really yummy!

    That's only for one rather large (or 2 small, if you prefer) pancakes. You can double it for 2 large pancakes if you wish. I like to have just one pancake, then something else like fruit or yogurt on the side.

    Okay... didn't wait too long! I didn't have cottage cheese, but I did have Greek Yogurt. It seemed a bit runny so I added about another 1/8 c of oats. I also used egg substitute. Definitely needs the cinnamon or maybe a splash of vanilla, but not bad with a smidge of light margarine and some honey!

    I had the first recipe for breakfast yesterday and it was REALLY good. Kept me full, too!

    Can't wait to try the chocolate version--just need to go shopping first!

    Thanks to both of you for the recipes.

    I saved this recipe a while ago and finally got around to making the pancakes last week. OMG - thanks soooooo much for sharing!!! I'm all about getting lots of protein esp. for breakfast and this is such a yummy, easy way to get them. I've experimented a bit and like them best with some cinnamon thrown into the batter and then served with either apple sauce or PB spread on top.

    These keep me full for hours!! Thanks again :)
