Pancakes are a huge favourite in my house, but I always frown upon them because I am not too fond of eating so much flour.
For me, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I don’t really care if I eat very little dinner, but my breakfast has to be really healthy and filling.
So I really love these pancakes because they are bursting with health and keep me full for a long long time.
Gluten free, made with the goodness of oats, cottage cheese and fruit, these low calorie protein rich pancakes can be made in a jiffy- perfect for dieters.
Ingredients
- Oats (any kind)- 1 cup
- Eggs- 2 ( lightly beaten)
- Cottage cheese- 1/2 cup
- Vanilla extract- 1 tsp
- Blueberries - 1/2 cup (or any other soft fruit)
- Milk- 2-3 tbsp
- Effervescent fruit salt (Eno)- 1/3 tsp
Method
Step 1
Pop the oats, cottage cheese, lightly beaten eggs and vanilla extract into a blender and blend till smooth.
Step 2
Pour into a large bowl and mix in the milk and Eno (effervescent fruit salt).
Step 3
Now, mix in the blueberries or any other soft fruit like raspberries or strawberries, basically whatever is at hand.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick pan or cast iron flat tawa (griddle)
Step 5
Grease with oil. When hot, reduce the flame and put 1-2 heaped tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto the pans.
Step 6
Flip over after a minute or so. The fruit salt enables the pancakes to puff up really well. Cook for about 3 minutes in total.
Step 7
If you like, you can serve these pancakes with maple syrup or honey.
I like to eat them as it is because the fruit lend a beautiful sweetness to the pancake.
Try this for a lovely gluten free, high protein breakfast. You’ll love it!
