I know the name of this recipe might make it a hard sell, but hear me out! They are just as sweet and tasty as regular pancakes but with protein to keep you going.

Serves 1

½ cup rolled oats
½ banana
½ tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. ground cinnamon
1 egg
6 tbsp. cottage cheese
1 tsp. olive oil

Place all the ingredients, except for the olive oil, into a blender and blend to form a completely smooth pancake batter.

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over a medium-low heat. Cook the pancakes, allowing 4 tablespoons of the pancake batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on top of the pancake, then flip the pancakes over and cook until golden brown on the second side.

This recipe makes 4 pancakes.
