sweet egg pancake w/o the carbs
I made a pancake this morning using my required 1/3 cup oatmeal, and 4 egg whites.
Well, it was so darn good that when I got home, for dinner I made that same pancake minus the oatmeal, since I’m not supposed to have a lot of carbs at night. I mixed 1 scoop vanilla protein powder, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice into it. Oh and a TBSP of natural PB. I was amazed at how fluffy and full it came out… not to forget how delicious it is!
i put strawberry preserves on it for my boys and they loved it too!

Hey that sounds so good…do you have some measurements for the ingredients? i’d love to try it and what brand of protein do you use? They sound so good!

I used 3/4 a cup of egg whites, which is equal to 4 egg whites. I used one level scoop of 4ever whey vanilla protein (but it doesn’t matter what brand as long as you like the taste!) When I put the oatmeal in it I used 1/3 cup. I like a lot of cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice so I just dashed a bunch in and put maybe 1-2 tbsps of PB. I really don’t measure spice things these days. They are pretty sweet on their own but if you want add some sweetner and maybe a dash of milk or fat free creamer to make them fuller (even though they cook up great!) Cook over med heat and flip once one side is firm and tan. I like to put a lid over mine because I find it cooks the other side quicker. I do this with omelets as well.
