Who loves pancakes? ME! Who loves fresh berries? ME! Who loves Cinnamon? ME! Who loves protein? ME ME ME!
These are one of my favourite pancakes I've made. I loved them so much that they deserved to be my first pancake recipe entry on my site.
If you don't have protein powder, then you could use some Stevia to sweeten these up and add a little more oatmeal or some type of gluten-free flour to thicken them a bit.
You could even blend some berries right into the batter.
Berry Cheesecake Pancakes - serves 2 (or 1 if you have a big appetite, like me!)
1/2 cup gluten-free Oats
1/4 cup unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
3 tbsp's 100% liquid Egg Whites
1 tbsp Cinnamon Powder
1 scoop French Vanilla Protein Powder (I like Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey)
1/4 cup non-fat Cottage Cheese
1/2 cup fresh blueberries and chopped strawberries
1. Put first 6 ingredients into a blender and blend until well combined and smooth.
2. Fold in the fresh berries.
3. Place 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the mixture into a pre-heated pan on low to medium heat.
4. Flip pancakes when the tops have become less runny or when small air holes appear.
5. Serve immediately.
OPTIONAL: I like to top mine with 1/4 cup of non-fat plain Greek Yogurt mixed together with 1 tablespoon of strawberry protein powder.
