Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Rolled oats
- 200 grams Low-fat cottage cheese
- 3 large Egg whites
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 60 milliliters Unsweetened almond milk
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
In a blender, combine the rolled oats, low-fat cottage cheese, and egg whites. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Add in the baking powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon, salt, and unsweetened almond milk. Blend again until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour about a 1/4 cup portion of the batter onto the skillet. Spread slightly to form a pancake shape.
Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancake and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, reapplying non-stick spray as necessary.
Serve the pancakes immediately, topping with fresh fruit, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
