I hope that everyone had a fabulous weekend!
Last weekend I was inspired to make a flourless high protein pancake, so here it is!
What’s better than warm hotcakes on Sunday morning?
Healthy hotcakes!

Oat & Yogurt Pancakes
Serves 4

1 cup rolled oats
6 egg whites
1 cup Chobani 0% unsweetened Greek yogurt
1 Tbsp agave nectar (honey or maple syrup work as well)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp baking powder

Topping:
1 Tbsp peanut butter (or other nut buter)
1 tsp pure maple syrup

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Lightly coat a pan over medium heat with nonstick or olive oil cooking spray. Using a 1 Tablespoon measuring spoon, scoop batter into the pan. Once the batter starts to bubble, flip to the opposite side and cook through. Repeat for each pancake. Spray nonstick spray in-between each round to prevent sticking.

Note: 1 serving is 4 Tablespoon sized pancakes.

Two Ingredient Pancakes

Happy National Pancake Day!!!

I am loving these awesome food holidays! Yesterday I celebrated National Frozen Yogurt Day with my friend Brett at Yogurtland for a free yogi and toppings. The line went well around the corner of the store, but it moved petty fast. I went with plain/tart and topped it with kiwi, yogurt covered raisins, and yogurt chips, mmmm!

Instead of going to IHOP for their oh so tempting free and very caloric pancakes, I have some ultra skinny and healthy two ingredient pancakes for you! Celebrate this tasty holiday with a batch of gluten free, flour-less, and protein packed pancakes! They’re so sweet, you may not even want syrup!

Serves 1

2 eggs
1 very ripe banana

my favorite additions:
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp cinnamon

Mash the ripened banana with hands or a fork until smooth and set aside. Beat two eggs and then add to the mashed banana. Add vanilla and cinnamon into the batter if desired. Generously spray a pan with nonstick or olive oil cooking spray and turn the stove to medium heat. Using a 1 Tbsp measuring spoon, scoop a spoonful of batter and pour into the pan. Flip the pancakes once the edges become cooked. Allow the pancakes to cook through. Respray the pan with nonstick spray between each set of pancakes. Enjoy!
Note: Start with a lower heat since the pancakes can burn easily. Each pancake takes a couple of minutes to cook.
Another Note: Nonstick cooking pans help making the pancakes easier to make.
