These seemed to get good reviews on another forum.

1/2 cup Oatmeal
1/2 cup Cottage Cheese
1 egg yolk, 4 eggs without the yolk
A dash of cinnamon
a tsp of vanilla
Blend it up and it's ready to cook!

I have a good one at home from Gregg Avedon I will post on Monday.

I make the same ones that PJB is making. I'll do it as follows:

1 cup cottage cheese
1 cup oats
5 eggs whites

Then either some vanilla or almond extract, a bit of whey protein for taste (not really needed with all of the protein in it), and a crap load of berries. If I'm feeling really cheeky, I'll put some sugar free syrup on there. God I LOVE pancake day...

The ones from pjb are good I have used that one before.

Now I just use a whole wheat mix with an egg and water. You could add protein powder.

Johnka has a recipe in Gourmet Nutrition and in MF that used a wholewheat mix base with whey.

Infact he posted it here...

Massive Protein Pancakes

Good Luck!

Stupid question here. The 1/2 cup Oatmeal. Is that cooked? Or dry? Sounds like it would be really dry batter if your talking dry oatmeal...

Can someone clarify. Sorry if this seems like a stupid question but I'd rather ask than screw it up. Thanks!

I've always made it with dry oats.

Strangely the batter looks like....

Thanks OG. I'm gonna try these this weekend. They sound yummy.

I forgot the recipe I used to use, I haven't made them in so long, but it was dry oats, chocolate protein powder, a couple whole eggs and a couple egg whites. Something like that, there are a ton of recipes out there. The ones from Johnka sound great too, might have to try those.

That reminds me, tomorrow morning I get a cheat meal, cracker barrel for breakfast. I think Momma's Pancake Breakfast with pork sausage and biscuits and gravy sounds in order.

The ones with oats... You blend it in a blender? So it's smooth, right?

Yes, use a blender. The first time i tried to make them I think I left out that step. I would not recommend it.

These are awesome pancakes (with the oatmeal and egg whites)... everything in the family loves them... My oldest is picky and can't tell the difference... I used to use cottage cheese but don't so much anymore... Anything with cinnamon... MMMMMMM!!!
