This post comes from my sick bed, where I have been for the past 2 days. 😦 I contracted a stomach bug but all is fine – just need to keep hydrated, eat bland (come at me white bread!) and I should be fine in a day or so.
Now, even though I can eat an abundance of white bread and crackers at the moment, the only thing I REALLY want are these gorgeous, fluffy pancakes. They are so devine. One day I ate them for breakfast AND dinner… DON’T YOU DARE JUDGE ME!
I’ve fooled around with a few different recipes but they were never quite right. So I made some of my own changes and came up with these.
The trick is in the protein powder – you really have to get a nice tasting protein powder. I use Gaspari Myofusion in Milk Chocolate and it is DELICIOUS. You can buy it from BMB Supplements. Enter in the code “mevsbulge” and get 10% off any products til 1st February 2012! 😉
These can pack quite a calorie punch though – about 500 calories (and an amazing 55g of protein!) if you have them with the yoghurt and berries but you can remove the oats and use only egg whites to make them lighter.
Ingredients
1 scoop protein powder
1/2 cup dry, uncooked instant oats
1/4 low fat cottage cheese
3 egg whites
1 whole raw egg
Add everything to a bowl.
Stir well or blend for a smoother consistency.
Pour into a non-stick pan on low-medium heat. Meanwhile, heat up your grill.
Wait a few mins for bubbles to form…
Then stick it under the grill for a few minutes. I do this because it is too big and awkward to flip over without breaking!
Add a tablespoon of natural yoghurt and a few berries… And voila!
Yum!
Hope you guys enjoy – let me know what you think! 🙂
