Oatmeal Pancake Recipe

Oatmeal Pancakes (they are awesome)

6 egg whites, beaten until fluffy
1/2 c low fat cottage cheese (I use the no sodium added)
1 scoop whey protein (I prefer vanilla but you can use any flavor)
1/2 c oatmeal, uncooked
1/4 c wheat germ
1/4 c flax seed (you can use regular flax seed or the flax seed meal)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp canola oil
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Place all ingredients except beaten egg whites in a food processor and pulse or blend until mixture is uniform (sometimes I just blend the dry ingredients and put the egg whites, oil, and cottage cheese together...they seem more moist this way). Pour blended ingredients in a bowl and add the egg whites. Fold until just blended (if you think the mixture is thick, you can add water to desired consistency. Prepare a griddle with non-stick, non-fat cooking spray. Ladle pancake mixture onto griddle and cook until both sides are browned.

Makes 2 servings.

You can add blueberries if you want. I top with 1/4 c sugar free syrup (20 calories)
