Cottage Cheese Oatmeal Pancakes
(160)
  • Number of Servings: 6
Ingredients
.5 cup dry oatmeal.5 cup fat free cottage cheese4 egg whites1/2 tsp baking powder1/2 tsp vanilla1 packet Stevia* (2 packets for sweeter pancakes)a Blender
Directions
Blend everything except the oats. Once you have a smooth liquid, add the oats and blend for only a little bit, you want the batter to be a little bumpy.


If you're going to add fruit (like blueberries), add them whole to the batter after you blend it or your batter will be too liquidy.
I usually let the batter sit for a couple minutes, to thicken up a bit.


Cook in a pan coated with no stick cooking spray. Makes about six 4-5” pancakes.
Top with your favorite sugar free syrup.


*Splenda packets can be used in place of Stevia.

     Definitely will make these again. They were yummy and I had no problems with texture or runny batter. I tweaked a pinch - used 2 eggs instead of whites and added cinnamon. Excellent! - 2/5/11

     I didn't have the cheese so I used Fage Greek Style yogurt (o% fat) instead. This yogurt has a very thick texture which is why I think the pancakes were not a runny mess. I too used an instant oatmeal (Costco's Organic Instant stuff). I used nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon for flavoring. - 2/19/10

     I've been making these for awhile now. I half the recipe and make for lunch quite often. These are fantastic!
    However, I do not add the Stevia or any artificial sweetner. I do not like the taste or aftertaste of artificial sweetners have so I prefer to go without. - 12/17/08

     These have become a favorite at my house, with DH and I both working on our calorie intake. I use old-fashioned 5-min. oats and have no problems with the batter just as written. If you measure 1/4 C of batter to make 6 they are about 4" and you should cook thoroughly before trying to turn. - 11/13/11

     I didn't have any oatmeal so i substituted oatbran i also added some cinnamon to the batter and ate with Smuckers no sugar added Raspberry jam it was delish ! - 2/22/09
  • CHADANDDENISE
     Great! I made some substitutions based on what I had...and added 1/2 a banana (I halved the recipe) and they were so good I didn't even use syrup. (That's unheard of in my house!) - 9/18/08
  • RUBYAUDENTIA
     Awesome recipe! I added fresh strawberries to the batter once it was poured on the pan. Make sure that you keep your pan on medium low. It takes longer to cook, but they'll stay together. - 2/27/10
  • KRAZYKAT222
     I used 1/4 cup whole wheat flour, 1/4 cup oats, and two eggs, and they turned out wonderfully. Yum! - 10/19/08
  • WANNABEMATAHARI
     LOVED these! Will make them often as a pre-workout snack. I used 1-minute oats and made sure to only PULSE the mixture with the oats a few times to keep it lumpy enough. Those who complain that the texture is too runny, make sure your pan is hot enough to immediately sizzle the batter upon contact. - 3/27/12

     For those complaining about runny pancakes, why don't you whip up two of the egg whites and fold them under the batter. You still have to cook them slowly, but it is so worth it. - 3/21/13
  • COUNTRYLUVNMAMA
     I have a question. Is that old fashioned oatmeal or quick 1 minute? I see some have mentioned a problem cooking/staying together. The type of oatmeal could make a difference. - 3/8/09
  • LZFISHER
     I use 2 whole eggs and quick oats, and leave out any sweetener. Never have any problems with holding together. Also good with just a few tbl spoons of old fashion oats substituted in for more texture. Then eat with cream cheese and fresh fruit. Fabulous! Currently my husbands favorite pancakes. - 9/20/12
  • MALENASTAR
     These were very good. Didn't have any cottage cheese so I used Dannon's vanilla flavored greek yogurt. I also added some pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon. - 3/27/11
  • SILLYGIRLZAM
     These are so yummy! I had to use up a container of cottage cheese that I couldn't eat straight up because of all the sodium in it and I really didn't want to toss it. I added 1 very ripe small banana instead of the stevia and still tasted yummy. Definately will make me more! - 1/28/11
  • AEROGERS129
     These were incredible! The only change I made was 2 packets of Truvia instead of Stevia -- tasted amazing! Even my boyfriend, who dislikes anything even remotely healthy, loved them and even talked about them later in the day! Thank you for adding this staple to my recipe book! :) - 5/9/11
  • CD9621765
     Absolutely amazing! The Cals blew me away. After a month of SP diet, I was really needing some "soul food". These were light, fluffy (if you make in the blender) and delicious. I doubled the recipe for my family of 5 and there were not any left. Bless you! - 3/26/11
  • BUTSWEETER
     These are an absolute pain to make! The batter is really runny and hard to control. Because of how much it spreads they get really thin and tear instead of flipping. I've found making really small ones is the way to go. They're great with some pumpkin spice thrown in and pumpkin or apple butter! - 1/27/11
  • CD6865471
     Fluffy, soft and tasty! I don't use baking powder but instead I use truvia sweetener, cinnamon and vanilla extract and add sliced bananas and top with natural PB. I blend the oats, cottage cheese and eggs whites together and then stir in the the rest of the ingredients. Tastes just like pancakes! - 8/13/10
  • SANDIEVAL
     I make this every morning - I add one egg, 1 tsp cinnamon, pinch of salt, no sweetener or sugar. I mix it all together at same time. I eat the whole amount which comes to 304 calories. Plus I add 1 tbsp real maple syrup on top. This morning, I added 1/4 c. Blueberries. I use Pam. So good! - 6/9/15
  • ETHELMERZ
     Tasted good, but six servings is really stretching it, one pancake is not a serving, why make this for one pancake each? We each had three. If you don't add junk to them, it's fine. - 5/21/15
  • GLISTER78
     Obviously, these aren't going to be rich fluffy pancakes, but they are still Delish and incredibly healthy! Add 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice for a little more flavor. - 2/16/10
  • SANDRA7380
     I just made these with some flax. I agree to keeping them small they cook up better. They taste good for being healthy. - 1/24/10
  • TARADT
     These tasted good but they didn;t stay together cooking, so it was a big lump of a mess - 1/13/09
  • POSEY440
     Great - 6/2/21
  • MMEDFOR1
