Power Protein Pancakes


There are many variations of protein pancakes and you can be creative with these.


-3 egg whites

-1/4 C non fat cottage cheese

-1/4 C of dry hot cereal like Bob's Red Mill Museli or 12 grain (or just old fashioned oats--you can put the oats in a blender for a coarse flour)

-1 teaspoon aluminum free baking powder.

-1 teaspoon cinnamon

-pinch sea salt


*Mix together all above and drop by tablespoon in hot skillet. For sweetner you can use some light syrup or agave. You can also throw in 1-2 tablespoons of chopped dates or currants. I eat them plain!


VARIATIONS:


Try these, or come up with your own!

Pumpkin Pie Pancakes:

1 tablespoon canned pumpkin

to taste: cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice


Blueberry:

1/2 cup of blueberries

(these come out mushy if you use frozen--you can thaw and drain)


Banana:
1/2 cup of diced banana

Ginger-Peach
1-2 tablespoons of minced FRESH ginger

A healthy body is created one meal at a time.
