EASY cottage cheese crepes! High protein/low cal!

I don't normally post on the forums, but I tried a recipe I found off of pinterest today and loved it! Just three main ingredients for these high protein crepes (I made them pancakes by adding some baking powder so they were fluffier).
2 Eggs
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/4 flour
And I also added just a tiny bit of vanilla extract and cinnamon for taste. When I added it in to MFP, the entire batch (8 pancakes) was only 360 calories, 25g carbs, 29g protein, and 15g fat.
I put just a tiny bit of syrup on mine, but I'm sure they would taste great with fruit or jelly, too! It was really easy with the magic bullet, I just put it all in and let it stir it up for me.
Enjoy!0 -
I just made these for dinner. I added a bit of salt and had them with rosemary lime chicken breast cutlets, hass avocados, lettuce, tomatoes and a dash or sweet balsamic vinegrete. They were a hit!0

Tried these this morning and, yeah, they were pretty good. Definitely needed syrup (only a little) or something. And they were obviously eggier than pancakes, so kind of a half pancake/half omelet, but pretty yummy.
I think next time I might omit the baking powder and treat it more like a true crepe with a filling.0 -

Try using ricotta, instead of cottage cheese ~~ it's smoother0

I really want to try these for breakfast tomorrow - no cottage cheese in the house, but am going to risk it with some greek yoghurt instead!0

Update: I made them this morning, but used soy bean flour instead of wheat (I'm trying to cut right back on wheat at the moment) - extra protein and gluten-free! They turned out to be delicious!0
