    1 Banana
    1/4 Cup Steel Cut Oats
    3 Egg Whites
    1 Whole Egg
    1 Tsp Molasses (optional)
    Cinnamon

    Grind up oats in blender. Add rest of the ingredients. Makes 2-3 large pancakes. 393 Calories and 23g protein. They are awesome.

    Made these this morning, OMG delicious! I topped it with a little bit of peanut butter! So good!

    1 1/4 cups gluten free oat flour
    1 tsp baking powder
    1 tsp cinnamon
    1/2 tsp baking soda
    1 cup apple juice
    1/3 cup apple sauce
    1 egg
    2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
    Scant salt

    In a medium size blow, mix together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. In a small blow, mix together the egg, apple juice, apple sauce, and coconut oil. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix well. Heat a nonstick frying pan over medium to medium/high heat. Coat pan with oil to prevent sticking. Once pan is hot, pour pancakes using 1/4 cup measurements. Flip when bubbles form. Makes about 14 pancakes.

    1 pancake=69 calories. If you want to add this to your diary. It is on the database called: Rachel's Recipe Apple Cinnamon Pancakes

    ENJOY!

    I wanted to try this out this morning. I wasn't able to do oat flour but did 3/4 cup wheat flour and 1/2 cup white. I didn't have apple juice so used milk and added a cap full of apple cider vinegar. Also tossed in a scant 1/4 cup sugar and a chopped apple. Delicious!

    Someone posted one the other day. Haven't hada chance to try it yet. Only 20 calories each!

    2oz low fat cream cheese
    2 egg whites
    1 packet of truvia
    1/2 tsp of cinnamon

    Combine and cook like regular pancakes. (makes 4 pancakes)

    I've tried this - its easy for every oz of cream cheese use either 1 egg (yolk and white) OR 3 egg white equivilant (my carton says 3 TBL egg white per one egg)..skip the cinnamon and sweetner/sugar..and add a splash of vanilla extract yum!! I have done it a few times -throw ingreedients in food processor and mix well..it may not LOOK like much but you pour into medium heated skillet (I use a small one to keep the pouring amnt in check) and it easily makes 3 to 5 thin yummy pancakes.

    I will admit ..its not JUST LIKE pancakes - I do miss the doughieness/flour-ish real taste of pancakes when eating these but for a low carb, lower fat (with egg whites) and lower sodium treat, with some light maple syrup and a pat of unsalted butter these are great!!

    **they cook quickly at a medium high heat - so flip after a minute, total cook time for each 'cake' is less than two minutes or you get a burned mess!! lol aslo the plated result VISUALLY resembles a real pancake - that goes a long way for my tastebuds and satisfaction level. Honey nut cream cheese is tasty too, in lieu of just plain cream cheese - and I'd stick with full fat cream cheese..it just holds up better and is more satisifying in my book.

    I made these this morning - except I didn't process the oats and I just used two small eggs, instead of 3 whites and a whole, and added some wheat bran and about 2 tablespoons of flour to get the right consistency - they tasted really good! :smile:

    This was a post I copied and pasted from the recipes thread under gluten free, low carb pancakes that I read yesterday. I have not tried as I am not an egg fan. I love me some pancakes and usually just eat (try to)one made from a regular recipe. Sometimes you have to splurge or at least I find I do otherwise I am obsessing over pancakes the rest of the day. (there is a picture of the finished product on the actual tread and they look delish)


    2 oz. low-fat cream cheese
    2 eggs (whites only)
    1 packet truvia
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

    77 calories for 4 pancakes

    Blend all ingredients until smooth and cook as you would with regular pancakes. Add whatever toppings you'd like to kick it up a notch! I love adding a few chocolate chips and topping with berries.

    I had 3 homemade buttermilk pancakes with 150 grams strawberries, 2 tablespoons Golden Griddle Low calorie syrup and a cup of breakfast tea for 492 calories. Not bad for a Sunday breakfast. On weekdays I eat oatmeal.
    Why give up on pancakes?

    I use this recipe for oatmeal pancakes ... only 296 cals for 4 small pancakes (less if you use less sugar and skim milk).

    1 1/2 c. oats
    1/2 c. whole wheat flour
    1 1/4 c. milk (you could sub in some apple sauce or cottage cheese if you wanted to)
    1-2 tbsp oil (I usually only use 1)
    1/4 tsp. cinnamon
    1 egg
    2 tbsp. sugar (optional)
    1 tsp. baking powder

    Mix all ingredients together and let stand for a few minutes to thicken. Makes 12 4" pancakes.

    My toddler LOVES these with blueberries, bananas, sauteed cinnamon apples, etc. so I eat them often and they are FILLING.

    I've tried incorporating into my pancakes ingredients like oats, yogurt, whole wheat flour, applesauce. Not necessarily "low calorie" but way more bang for your buck than ingredients like oil and white flour.

    I just made these yesterday, with a few swaps.

    http://allrecipes.com/recipe/oatmeal-pancakes-ii/detail.aspx

    whole wheat flour for all-purpose
    splenda with fiber for sugar
    egg substitute for egg
    unsweetened applesauce for veg oil
    unsweetened original almond milk for buttermilk
    add 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

    I double the recipe and get 15 pancakes. Each has 75 calories, 10 carbs, 1 gram of fat, no saturated fat, 7 grams of protein, and 1 gram of fiber. Delicious and guilt-free!

    I use this recipe for waffles, but it works to make pancakes as well.

    2 cups bisquick
    2 eggs
    1 cup milk (or more/less for consistency)

    This makes 4 square belgian waffles (very thick, about 3-4 inches x 3-4 inches). I'm not sure how many pancakes it would make. Each waffle was about 100 calories
