Finally, I'm posting the oatmeal cottage/cheese pancakes!!!!
This is from the Body For Life book
Golden Pancakes
1 cup uncooked whole-grain oats (non-instant)
6 egg whites
1 cup low fat (I use 2%) cottage cheese
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 packets sugar substitute (I use Splenda)
1/2 cup sugar-free maple syrup
1/4 cup mixed berries
Lightly coat a nonstick skillet or griddle with cooking spray; place over medium heat.
In a blender combine oats, egg whites, cottage cheese, vanilla, cinnamon and sugar substitute. Blend on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
Pour batter - about 1/4 cup at a time, into hot skillet. Cook pancake until bubbly on top and dry around edges, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook other side until golden brown, about 2 more minutes.
While pancakes are cooking microwave maple syrup until warm, about 20 seconds.
Place a portion (e3-4) of pancakes on 2 separate plates. Top with warm maple syrup and mixed berries. (I have only used blueberries with this - one time I put them in the batter at the very end and mixed by hand.
These are really good and really filling - just be sure and cook them long enough or they will be too gooey in the middle.
