Easy Protein Pancakes Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make breakfast:
-6 egg whites: I just gently crack the egg, then carefully tip the egg yolk into half the shell, draining the egg whites out in the process
-1 cup oats: I prefer to use old fashioned oats, but you can use Quick Oats if that’s all you have on hand
-1 cup cottage cheese: you’re going to blend the pancake batter up, so it doesn’t matter if you have large or small curds in your cottage cheese
-2 tsp. sugar
-1 tsp. cinnamon: adds critical flavor!
-1 tsp. vanilla: since this is an ingredient that adds sweetness and flavor, I suggest using a good quality vanilla extract or a Vanilla Bean Paste. I linked my favorites!
-*10+ chocolate chips optional: I usually add 1-3 to each pancake!
How to Make Low Carb Protein Pancakes
Place all of your ingredients into a blender and then blend them together until smooth.
Spray and preheat your griddle or nonstick skillet.
Once the pan is heated, add about 1/4cup of the batter onto the griddle and cook until the bottom is golden brown.
Add a chocolate chip before flipping, if desired.
Cook until both sides are cooked and golden brown and the pancakes no longer feel overly wet.
This recipe makes about 10 pancakes.
