Ingredients
4 ounces Breakstone's Lowfat LiveActive Cottage Cheese3 large fresh egg whites1/2 cup Quaker Oats Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats1 tablespoon Chia Seeds1 teaspoon vanilla1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Directions
1. Preheat griddle or nonstick skillet to 375 F.
2. Place all ingredients in a blender container. Blend on medium speed for 1 minute, scrap contents from sides of container, pulse another 15 seconds.
3. Lightly spray griddle with cooking spray. Divide and ladle batter onto hot griddle (about 1/4 cup each). Cook until bubbles appear on top of pancakes and edges appear dry (about 2-3 minutes). Flip pancakes and continue cooking another 2 minutes, depending on thickness.

*Servings 1

*Note: I make 2 extra large pancakes or 6 small from batter, and it is supposed to be one serving, but half this much fills me up--so I divided the recipe into two servings for the nutrition info The calorie count does not include toppings. I use butter spray, 2 tablespoons warmed pure maple syrup (sometimes) and fresh berries or bananas on mine.

    These are BY FAR my favorite protein pancakes I have made so far!! They smell AMAZING just cooking them! I served them with applesauce on top! I used a 1/4 cup to make pancakes and came up with only 4 pancakes, but that was still plenty, I could only eat 3 at one serving. Thanks for the recipe! - 3/27/09

    These are SO GOOD! As others have mentioned, the pancakes are not sweet, but that's what fruit or maple syrup on top is for. I diced up some apple to put in the batter to sweeten it a little bit and then topped them with a little natural PB. Might try blueberries and lemon zest next time. THANK YOU! - 3/1/14

    I started using this recipe for pancakes I can eat on the run. I make a batch, I usually add a little more cinnamon for more flavor. I put them in the frig then take one out each day, top with a T of almond butter. Great snack for on the run! - 4/1/13

    These pancakes rock. Very tasty, and the nutritional profile is incredible. I used flax seeds instead of chia seeds. Yummy drizzled with maple syrup. - 5/15/10

    I have all of these ingredients! I can't wait to try these tomorrow morning! I think I might try adding a ripe banana, too. Thanks for the recipe!! - 8/29/09

    Beyond my expectations! Very yummy! - 8/23/14

    Great recipe. Slight cinnamon flavor comes through. Flax seeds work in place of chia seeds if you don't have any. Pancakes aren't lumpy if you use a blender the way recipe says. - 8/23/14

    Made these pancakes this morning. What a great alternative to regular pancakes which never stick with me. These were so filling and satisfying since there is so much protein in them. The consistency is really great, very light and fluffy since there is so many eggwhites in them. - 4/17/14

    I have to say that I don't usually do healthy recipes like this because I have had so many failures, but these were good. They smell delicious and have a taste of a regular pancake with the hint of oatmeal:-) I will definitely be having these when my boyfriend makes his Sunday breakfasts. - 4/12/14

    I didn't have the cottage cheese or chia, but was craving some pancakes. I used Activia Light Peach (60 cal.) And skipped the chia. They were moist and yum! I ate the whole batch with a drizzle of honey for about 350 calories. - 4/24/13

    I made these today & I agree that the flavor is GREAT. I substituted flax seed for the chia seeds & add 100 g of chopped apple. The only reason I have given this recipe 4 stars instead of 5 is that they stuck badly to the pan and never really did "set". MUST use non-stick pan & cook long & slow. - 3/30/12

    Great recipe, I used 1 large omega egg + 1 jumbo egg white, seemed a little thick, maybe will thin out with almond milk next time. I also added blueberries in the blender. These are not sweet at all and I actually prefer that. Will be making again. - 2/22/11

    TAsty! altho I could not locate my chia seeds so had to do without and I would add in almond flavoring as well next time. served em with apple butter and plain nonfat yogurt on top! TYVM! - 8/20/10

    Awesome! Added some Stevia and they were perfect. - 7/27/10

    Just made these for breakfast! I couldn't blend the ingredients well (I was using an immersion) so I added water, but then it got too liquidy so I had to add flour :-( I also added two tsp of brown sugar... Maybe next time I'll use a real blender. Either way, they turned out pretty tasty & filling. - 1/10/10

    We followed the other suggestion and served these with unsweetened applesauce. We added a little extra cinnamon on top as well. These were very good - we'll definitely have them again, but I didn't think they were spectacular. Very simple to make and will make again. - 8/13/09
