Healthy Pancake Recipes!
Before I start my pancake post, I have to remind you all of my 2010 Team Sarcoma Initiative post from yesterday. The full week starts tomorrow: July 17-25, 2010.
The Facebook event can be joined HERE! Thank you!
I will mention this every day thru the Sarcoma Initiative week so please hang with me. It is just my way of helping fight the cause. Ya never know who may read it & want to help or pass my link on to another person who can help OR who is in need of support due to this cancer.
OK, all about pancake recipes! Got to say that I loved pancakes as a kid & well the butter & syrup on them!
From Nourished Fitness:
Blueberry Breakfast Awesomeness
Pancake perfection.. in blueberry form:
1 scoop Cake Batter Protein Powder
3/4 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1/4 c Egg Whites
1/4 c Oats, ground to flour
2 tbsp UVAB (unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze) + 2 tbsp H20
~1/3 c fresh Blueberries
Topped with 0-calorie maple syrup (I promise it wasn’t as much as that pool makes it look :p)
Oat Cake Protein Pancakes
4 scoops Cake Batter Protein Powder
1.5 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 c Oats, ground to flour
Cinnamon, to taste
3/4 c Egg Whites
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 c H20 (the new protein powder (PP) is super thick) Readers may want to work in the water as to not overdo since all PP are different.
Blend everything together in a large bowl with a Hand Mixer. Cook stovetop over medium heat. Makes 7 pancakes.
Per Charlotte: They're a whole plate of fluffy deliciousness for a low-carb, high-protein 100 calories. And that's not 100 cals/pancake but 100 calories for the whole recipe! I get 5 good sized pancakes out of it.
3 egg whites
2 Tbsp oat flour (others use coconut flour, almond flour, whole wheat flour, buckwheat flour, brown rice flour etc. I've tried them all and they all work but the oat's my fave.)
2 Tbsp almond milk (or regular milk)
1/4 tsp baking powder
Whip the egg whites to stiff peaks. Stir in other ingredients. Cook. (Like you need my direction on how to flip pancakes, right?) Top. (I love coconut butter, cashew butter and/or chunky applesauce on mine.) Eat. Melt into a puddle of joy.
These are so fluffy they're almost like angel food cake but without the sugar. Totally worth the few extra minutes it takes to beat those bad eggs.
OK, who wants pancakes!!!!!!! I am thinking you can make some extra & keep around for a quick mini meal or snack! Heck, top with some healthy PB, almond butter, sunbutter or whichever is you fav!

They all look so good!!! Tempting, but pancakes tend to weight me down -- even the healthiest ones.
Does this happen to anyone else...?

I'm usually too lazy to make pancakes in the morning, but sometimes we have breakfast for dinner. These are great recipes since they contain protein and not just empty carbs.
