Golden Pancakes

Nate and I had these for breakfast this morning. They were really good. They tasted a lot like french toast.

Servings: 2

Prep. Time: 15 min.

1 cup uncooked whole-grain oats (non-instant)

6 egg whites

1 cup fat-free cottage cheese

1/4 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

2 packets sugar substitute

1/2 cup sugar-free maple syrup

1/4 cup mixed berries

1. Lightly coat a nonstick skillet or griddle with cooking spray; place over medium heat.

2. In a blender, combine oats, egg whites, cottage cheese, vanilla, cinnamon and sugar substitute. Blend on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.

3. Pour batter, about 1/4 cup at a time, onto hot skillet. Cook pancake until bubbly on top and dry around edges, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook other side until golden brown, about 2 more minutes.

4. While pancakes are cooking, microwave maple syrup until warm, about 20 seconds.

5. Place a portion of pancakes on 2 separate plates. Top with warm maple syrup and mixed berries.
