    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!

    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.

    do mine as straight up protein pancakes/waffles

    1 scoop vanilla protein powder
    1 egg
    splash of vanilla
    splenda to tase
    cinnamon to taste
    1/2 t baking powder
    enough water to make the right consistancy for either pancakes (runny) or waffles (thicker)

    Makes 2 waffles

    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?

    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.

    Another way to increase the protein in pancakes or bread is to substitute chick pea flour for some of the wheat flour in the recipe.

    Hahaha! My fiancée agrees with you. I find them tasty. I bet if someone ate them without knowing what was in them, they'd find them alright too. But, I am odd.

    I use Buck Wheat Pancake mix. Very tasty! It has 5 proteins and 3 grams of fiber. Add protein mix to it as suggested by other members. 1/3 cup has 140 calories. I love the idea of using the fruit for a topping by putting in the microwave. YUMMY
