Breakfast of Champions

Protein pancakes… I really love pancakes, so here’s to another batch of healthy cakes all cleaned up so you can afford to eat them all the time!  
 
Ingredients makes 1 serving (if you are male double the recipe):
1/2 cup oatmeal
1 TBSP flax
1/2 cup egg whites
1/2 cup (frozen) blueberries
1/2 banana
 
Place all ingredients in the blender on high for 1 minute.  Heat a medium pan on the stove, lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray and pour the batter into pan.  It makes 2-3 cakes.

Approximately 300 calories and 14 grams of protein.

*I enjoyed mine alone with no accompaniments such as syrup or agave (I found them to be sweet enough on their own).  I love to start the day with 1/2 a grapefruit (you can snack on that while you cook the cakes). ENJOY! :)

Rivalus PROTEIN PANCAKES

These cakes are delicious! They make the perfect for Sunday brunch, packed with tons of protein, fiber and just the right amount of sweet! I could eat these everyday they are so flippin good!  
Ingredients:
1 cup oats
1 scoop vanilla protein
1 cup egg whites
1 TBSP ground flax
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup almond milk (I use 40 calorie vanilla Almond Breeze brand)
couple dashes cinnamon
dash salt
1 medjool date
1 banana
Directions:
Mix all ingredients in the blender 
Heat a pan over medium heat, and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter into pan, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side.
Serve: These cakes are already sweet, but if you have a sweet tooth, try serving with light agave or honey (I ate mine plain). Or if you need a little extra top with 1/2 cup cottage cheese and sprinkle with cinnamon and agave.
310 calories per serving and 23 grams of protein (makes 2 servings)
Optional extras: 1/2 cottage cheese 40 calories, 1TBSP agave 60 calories, 1 TBSP maple syrup 80 calories, 1 TBSP honey 65 calories
