Low Fat high fiber Pancakes

I wanted to share a GREAT recipe
I found about 2 years ago when I was trying to lose weight.

These pancakes are
Higher in Protein & Fiber and lower in Fat and Carbs than regular pancakes!
15 Minutes to Prepare and Cook

Ingredients

2 pouches - Quaker Instant Oatmeal, Weight Control, Banana Bread (or any type/flavor you like)
1/2 cup - Egg Beaters (or 2 eggs)
2/3 cup - Fat Free Cottage Cheese

If not using flavored oatmeal you may wish to add a little cinnamon, sweetener and vanilla extract or other flavorings to taste.

Directions

Blend in blender (I use my Magic Bullet)
* NOTE - this "batter" is VERY thick

Preheat a non-stick skillet sprayed with Pam over medium-medium high heat.
*NOTE - these cook better at a lower temp, you may want to use medium heat only

Makes 8 medium pancakes (about 6")
*NOTE - I make 1/2 the recipe and only get 2 pancakes



Turn carefully because these pancakes are very tender.
May need to cook longer than 'regular' pancakes.
NOTE - these burn easy, be sure to cook slower
at a lower temp than 'regular pancakes'.

I spray mine with a little spray butter and pour Sugar Free syrup over them


You can find this recipe with all the nutrition information on Sparks People.
Be sure to read all of the comments, lots of good tips and suggestions as well.

For some reason, 11 years ago when I moved into this house, I have not been able to make a good pancake. I got out the electric skillet last month and have to admit, it was better. Not good, but better. These are interesting. I will ponder them a bit, I'd have to do them in hiding, if the hubby saw the ingredients he'd stroke. heeheehee

Well, I do NOT like cottage cheese at ALL - but I couldn't even taste it in this recipe - so that's a good thing! LOL They really taste nothing like you'd think by the ingredients! - just remember, the biggest tip is to cook these slowly!!
