Protein Pancakes!

High Fibre- High Protein Healthy Pancakes

Looking for a health treat to have when your craving something sweater for your breaky or to mix things up? A great post workout treat also instead of your regular protein shake. Careful there addictive! If you are on a strictly low-carb eating plan you can remove the oats/quinoa and add more protein powder/cottage cheese/almond meal. Play with the ratios to your own taste :)

Ingredients (1 female serve)

• 1/3 cup egg whites
• 40g cottage cheese

Combine all dry ingredients in a bowel.

Whisk egg whites till soft peaks form, add in all wet ingredients.

Mix in dry ingredients and stir till combined, if a little dry add almond milk or dash water, if to wet add more protein powder or almond meal or quinoa flakes.

Heat a very hot pan and light spray olive oil or coconut oil.

Double the serve size for males, remember if your having this post workout you can also top with some fresh fruit or natural yoghurt.

I made this for my boyfriend and doubled the serve size topped it with natural yoghurt and cottage cheese and shredded coconut with a dash of cinnamon, he loved it! Found it very filling!
