Biggest Loser Oatmeal Pancakes

I found this recipe on Pinterest (where I find so many enticing recipes!) and thought it sounded very interesting. These pancakes have no flour or butter/oil in them, but they do have one shocking ingredient-cottage cheese! I love cottage cheese because its high in protein and low in fat. These pancakes are packed with protein, low in fat and low in carbs. I did modify the recipe a bit for myself, so what I used will be in blue. I have also included the nutritional value of this recipe for both the original and my modified version. Enjoy! 

Ingredients 

• 6 egg whites (3 whole eggs)
• 1 cup of cottage cheese
• 1 cup of rolled oats, dry
• 2 teaspoons of sugar
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Steps

1. Blend all of the ingredients above in a blender or food processor until smooth.
2. For each pancake, pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto a preheated griddle or skillet. Flip when bubbles have formed on top of the pancakes, about 2 minutes per side.
3. You will have about 9-10 pancakes when finished, with 3 pancakes per serving.

*I used 3 whole eggs instead because most of the protein in an egg is in the yolk. Also, because I don't like to waste egg yolks. Please choose to make this recipe the original way, my way, or come up with your own way to satisfy and meet your needs.*
