Pancakes!

[Sammi_Katt 303]

I was so excited to try these- I know, I know, carbs are still not good, but these are high Protein and I can only have a small amount... I found it on a bariatric website, and guys, these are AMAZING. (I didn't include the berries in mine, so the carbs are closer to about 5 for what I made, and I used 1/2cup of liquid egg whites instead of 3/4cup, so it tasted closer to real pancakes rather than eggy.)

Those look good! I wonder how they'd be with fresh blueberries in them?

[catwoman7 10,972]

they sound fine to me. Plus they're from Froedtert - they have an excellent bariatric program.

p.s. I make something similar to this - only I use regular oatmeal and whiz it around in the blender before adding the other ingredients. Sometimes I add a little Protein Powder, too, to bump up the Protein even more.

What are powdered peanuts? Do you make yourself from whole peanuts or is it like PB Fit?? Or something else like almond flour??

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed three ingredient pancakes (cottage cheese, oatmeal and eggs) and can't wait to try these next weekend!
