I have to tell you I was very skeptical when I read this recipe.
Very skeptical.
How could you not be, rolled oats? Cottage cheese? But I was also very curious to see if these pancakes would actually turn out great and if it would actually taste like a pancake. We all know what a pancake should taste like and we all love a great pancake.
So to make a long story short, these pancakes were phenomenal. If I wouldn’t have known the ingredients that went in them, I would have never believed it. They look like a regular pancake, maybe more like a whole wheat pancake, but they sure don’t taste like you’re cutting calories here. Simply phenomenal!
Even my extremely picky husband ate them and loved them. This is my new staple recipe for pancakes. So good.

Ingredients:
- 6 egg whites
- 1 cup rolled oats, dry
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions:
- Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet and spray with non-stick cooking spray, or use a non stick pan. For each pancake pour 1/4 cup of the batter, I made 3 pancakes at a time in my large skillet. Flip when they start to bubble and cook until golden brown.
- Repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve with some powdered sugar and some fresh berries.

Is the egg whites from the egg itself or have you ever used the egg white beater from the carton? Just wondering if it’s the same amount of egg white.
The egg whites are from the egg, never made these with egg white beater but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.
These are absolutely delicious! Although, I still put warm maple syrup on mine
