INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup non-fat cottage cheese
1/2 cup oats
2 eggs
pinch of cinnamon
honey (according to your taste)
coconut oil for greasing the pan (you can go with butter for added decadence or olive oil if you want to go the unsaturated way)
frozen berries (for the topping)
low-fat Greek yogurt (for the topping)
TOPPING:
Put a cup or more of frozen berries into a saucepan. Cook on medium high and stir until the berries are warm and the juices are released to form a light syrup. Use this and some low fat Greek yogurt for a delicious topping.
METHOD:
Put the oats into a food processor and grind until powdery then add the cottage cheese, eggs, cinnamon and honey. Mix thoroughly to form a smooth batter.
Heat a pan, smear with coconut oil, butter or olive oil. Once hot, pour some batter onto the pan. When you see bubbles forming, turn the pancake over with a spatula until the other side is cooked.
Make sure your pan isn’t too hot otherwise your pancakes will burn – it pays to be patient. Once you have the right temperature the pancakes cook quickly.
Serve the pancakes topped with the warmed berries and Greek yogurt for a very healthy breakfast treat.
