Start your day off right with these healthy and delicious Whole Grain Oatmeal Cottage Cheese Pancakes. Packed with protein and fiber, these pancakes are a nutritious alternative to traditional pancakes and are perfect for a filling breakfast. The combination of multi-grain oatmeal and low-fat cottage cheese offers a unique texture, while the vanilla extract adds a delightful flavor.
Instructions:
- Gather all the ingredients.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the multi-grain oatmeal, low-fat cottage cheese, vanilla extract, and egg whites.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined. The batter should be slightly thick but pourable.
- Pour small amounts of batter onto the preheated skillet or griddle to form pancakes. Each pancake should be about 3-4 inches in diameter.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set. Then, flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
- Once the pancakes are cooked, transfer them to a plate.
- Serve the pancakes warm. You can top them with fresh fruits, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, or a sprinkle of nuts for added flavor and texture.
Tips:
- For a smoother texture, blend the oatmeal before mixing it with the other ingredients.
- If you prefer a sweet touch, add a small amount of honey or maple syrup to the batter.
- Be sure to cook on medium heat to ensure the pancakes cook evenly without burning.
- Consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for an extra layer of flavor.
- Flip the pancakes when bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set.
