Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter
Instructions
Add the rolled oats to a blender and blend on high until they form a fine oat flour.
To the blender, add almond milk, cottage cheese, protein powder, eggs, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Blend until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease it lightly with coconut oil or butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake.
Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until both sides are golden brown and the centers are cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, re-greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, yogurt, or a drizzle of honey.
