Ready in: 15 minutes
Makes: 1 serving
INGREDIENTS
- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseeds
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 2 egg whites*
- 1⁄3 cup low-fat, low-sodium cottage cheese
*Preferably from fresh eggs, not a carton, as it changes the consistency.
Optional Toppings:
- Sugar-free maple syrup
- Blueberries
- Walnuts
DIRECTIONS
- Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. If batter is still thick, add another egg white. Refrigerate batter for 3 minutes while heating a pan over medium heat.
- Pour a third of the batter into pan. When it starts to bubble gently flip and cook other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
