A stack of delicious but healthy oat protein pancakes right there and you can't see the healthy right? BUT the healthy is there!
If you seen some of my other protein pancakes then you'll know the secret ingredients that makes them light and fluffy. These are made with oatmeal, egg whites and a surprise......cottage cheese!
Could you feed your family these? Of course! Otherwise I would have made them a single serving, this batter makes 16! My kids PREFER these pancakes over anything! It all started with blueberry oat pancakes then I made some pumpkin oat and my pickiest child, my 12 year old son, said If I made pancakes like this all the time, he'd eat them! And eat them he did! So now this is what I serve my kids!
Made with a LOT of egg whites BUT when you buy a carton of them it is much easier. 'Course you could just use eggs too, probably about 8 eggs. You could also try doing 4 eggs and 1 cup of egg whites as well.
Since it's Christmas Eve here are some other delicious but healthy breakfasts you might enjoy:
- Blueberry Oat Pancakes
- Pumpkin Oat Pancakes
- Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Scones
- Pumpkin Vanilla Millet Porridge
- Pumpkin Spice Muffins
- Ham & Cheese Puff Pancake
- Cranberry Apple Bread
- Personalized Whole Wheat Puff Pancakes
- Mini Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins
- Mini Upside Down Fruity Steel Cut Oat Cakes
Brenda's Notes:
- You could sub the egg whites with 8 eggs.
- If you don't have liquid stevia you can use powdered, here's my stevia conversion chart.
- If you don't like stevia you can certainly sub another sweetener of choice.

Can I use some whole eggs instead of only the whites?
Thanks!

Jeanne
Bananas are full of sugar. Honey???? Yogurt??? they have a lot of sugar too ! Is this really "sugar -free ?????
Brenda
I am sugar- free, my family is not. I use natural sugars for my family recipes. Some contain honey, some are completely sugar-free using stevia. Header on Blog: Naturally Sweetened Recipes for the whole family. You can read my ABOUT page for more information.

Is there a sub for the cottage cheese? Can't have dairy.
Chloe
Hi! can these pancakes be made without using cottage cheese? or do i need to sub something else in instead?
Brenda
You could sub Greek yogurt or ricotta cheese as well.
Josette
Thanks! That was the exact answer I was looking for. Have you tried either of these options?

Hello, I am new to your website and I want to let you know that I am grateful God is using you to help all of us live healthier lives with all your great recipes and tips. I really want to use this recipe but every thing I make I only need to make one or two servings because it is always for myself, so is there modified recipes to make less of this and some of your other stuff as well?
