“High Protein” blueberry pancakes

Found this recipe, which looked promising, but I modified it and used yogurt instead of cottage cheese (way too salty for me). They’re pretty tasty, but won’t remind you of fluffy pancakes – more like crepes.

With all the protein and little or no fat, they like to stick, so you’ll need some fat in the pan, and I had to resort to my non-stick fry pan ’cause I was essentially chiseling them out of my cast iron fry pan.

  • 1 C Oatmeal
  • 1 C plain yogurt
  • 3/4 C egg whites
  • 2 Tbsp honey (or sugar, or skip entirely)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Put the above in the blender and do so for 30 seconds or so.

  • 1 C blueberries

If you’re using frozen blueberries, defrost and drain before adding.

Cook over medium heat in a non-stick pan with a little coconut oil. I wound up using 3 minutes per side. YMMV.

I toted up ~750 calories for the batter, plus however much oil you use and about 36 g of protein for the whole batch.

P.S. – looks like there are a lot more good things over here at cleananddelicious.com, so check it out – I’ll be looking at the sweet potato recipes!
