Zone Diet - Perfect Pancakes
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup steel cut oats (4C)
- 1/2 cup fat-free cottage cheese (2P)
- 4 egg whites (2P) or 2 eggs (2P)
- 2 teaspoons peanut butter (4F) or 4 teaspoons sliced almonds (4F)
- cinnamon (optional)
- nutmeg (optional)
- vanilla (optional)
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients in blender until thick batter. For your fat count, either add peanut/cashew/mac butter to your batter or top with sliced/slivered almonds.
- Cook on griddle just like pancakes with butter flavored non-stick cooking spray until done, approx 3 mins per side on med heat. Add syrup and enjoy!
- Scale as necessary. For a 3 block meal, eat only 3 pancakes.
- I personally add 1 tsp of cinnamon & nutmeg and a Tbsp of vanilla, but I like those spices in my pancakes to come loud and strong.
