Protein Packed Pancakes

Protein Packed Pancakes

from Oxygen Magazine

Makes 1 Serving (3 pancakes)

Ingredients:

Olive oil spray
1/8 c low-fat cottage cheese
1/4 c egg whites
1 1/2 scoops chocolate protein powder
1 medium banana, sliced
1 T sugar-free maple syrup

Spray a pan with oil and set on medium heat.

In a bowl combine cottage cheese, egg whites, and protein powder. Use a hand-held blender to mix completely.

Pour batter into pan. Cook each side for about 2 minutes or until pancake is golden.

Top with banana slices and syrup.

This would also be good with strawberries! Or perhaps substitute the chocolate protein powder for vanilla and then top with fresh blueberries. Lots of options!
