Protein Pancakes

For a protein-packed switch up from regular pancakes, I tried out these Protein Pancakes from Nutritious and Delicious by Maria Emmerich:


They're a bit "eggy" and sweet, but my husband loved how protein loaded these were.  My daughter on the other hand, didn't care for how "eggy" they were--they were a bit of stretch (on the disappointing side to her) from what she was expecting when I told her I was making pancakes for breakfast.  They weren't bad tasting, just not what one would expect from pancakes.  Overall, I thought they were pretty tasty for the protein punch they had--I'll probably make them again but say I'm making "sweet eggy protein circles" next time.

Protein Pancakes

- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup vanilla whey protein powder
- 2 TBSP vanilla unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp Truvia

Blend all ingredients in blender or food processor until smooth. Let sit for 5 minutes to allow baking powder to fluff up batter, while heating skillet. Cook like regular pancakes--lightly grease or mist pan with butter or PAM, pour scant 1/4 cup, flip when bubbles form.
