Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Egg whites
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 1 medium Banana
- 2 tablespoons Plain Greek yogurt (nonfat or low-fat)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 spray Cooking spray
Instructions
In a blender, add the egg whites, rolled oats, banana, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and well-combined. Let it sit for about 2 minutes to allow the oats to absorb some liquid and thicken slightly.
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and coat lightly with cooking spray.
Pour the batter onto the skillet to form pancakes, about 3 to 4 inches in diameter. You can cook 2-3 pancakes at a time, depending on the size of your cookware.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on one side, until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancakes carefully with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the pancakes to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more cooking spray as needed between batches.
Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
