EASY & DELICIOUS OATMEAL PANCAKE


Most mornings I rush out of my apartment with something healthy I can eat in my car & wonder if I'll ever be a "morning person."  Days that I don't have to work, I like to spend more time making breakfast.  Oatmeal pancakes are one of my favorite things to make.  While I'm not a fan of diets, some of them have great recipes, & the South Beach Diet Oatmeal Pancake is no exception.  The only thing I change about their version is that I use 2 whole eggs rather than 4 egg whites, & I always add fruit.  Today I added 1/2 banana to the pancake batter, dropped frozen blueberries into the pancake,  & served with honey the other banana half sliced.  I plan on going for a long bike ride, so that's why I added banana & honey.  Sometimes I top the pancake with 100% maple syrup, just honey, mashed berries, or apple butter. 



INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup cottage cheese
2 eggs (or 4 egg whites)
1 tsp vanilla extract
nutmeg (or your preferred spice)
1 banana (optional)
blueberries (optional; fresh or frozen)
honey (optional)


PREPARATION
1.  In a blender cup or food processor, add the oats, eggs, cottage cheese, vanilla extract, nutmeg, & 1/2 banana if you are using it.
2. Blend.  If you are using berries, set them aside.
3.  Heat a skillet & use whatever you want to keep the pancake from sticking to the pan.
4.  Pour the batter into the skillet when the skillet is hot.  You may need a scraper to get all of the batter out.  Drop berries into the batter in the pan if you are using berries.
5.  Cook on med-low until both sides are done.
6.  Serve with your favorite topping.  Today I sliced the other banana half & drizzled honey over the pancake.
Enjoy, & let me know what you think!
