    I didn't add anything and its thickening up. Just taking a while to get there. I guess I need to use regular oatmeal next time.

    Edit:

    Cooked one. Did not like it. But it was worth the try.

    These surprisingly did NOT taste like cottage cheese and oatmeal

    All week I've been planning on having this "blowing the calorie-budget breakfast" in fact, I even had it for lunch because I knew it was going to be so many calories. Yesterday I came across this pancake recipe and figured I would use it in this amazing breakfast.... I found these chicken sausages at Wegmans (the world's best grocery store) and also wanted an egg.

    Grand total..... 339 calories. WHAT?! yep that's right. I'm still skeptical and if I hadn't entered and made everything myself, I would not have believed it at all. I made the pancakes with trivia (rather than sugar) and fat free cottage cheese. Rather than syrup (which would have been more calories than the pancakes), I used 1/2 Tablespoon of Smart Balance Hear Right Light butter and sprinkled cinnamon and trivia on the pancakes -- delicious!

    My pancakes came out to be 131 calories a serving (that was 3 fair sized pancakes)
    3 Sausages = 105 calories
    Egg + butter, etc = 103 calories

    They won't be huge buttermilk pancakes, but they will be much better than you would expect cottage cheese and oatmeal to be. These are definitely worth a try!

    Can I ask about the oatmeal you use? I see a comment a few posts above about someone using Irish Oatmeal and they thought it didn't work....I am in Ireland and had presumed you had meant what I would call porridge oats - what I think are rolled oats, like little flakes...or is it pinhead oatmeal you are using? I would like to try the pancakes but just wondered if my ingredient is the same as yours. If it is pinhead oatmeal I need I could get that. Thanks if anyone can describe the oatmeal you are all using :smile:

    I understood rolled oats. Once it has been in the blender, I doubt it makes a whole lot of difference. I would just stick with what you have.

    Bump. Is the oatmeal cooked prior to adding into the blender or is it just the dry oats?

    Use the flakes. I had the pinhead oatmeal....took to long to thicken with those and I just think it didn't turn out how it should because of it. I'm going to attempt it again with the flakes because I want pancakes!! :smile:

    I just got done eating, and made these for breakfast. I didn't have cottage cheese so I used about a 1/4 cup milk. They came out perfect, great consistency and very delicious. My only drawback, we're out of sugar free syrup so I had to use regular.

    Also, I measured out 1/4 cup and that was too big a pancake to me so I just made little medallions. They cooked better and tasted great.
