Banana Cinnamon Walnut Pancakes

These taste like warm banana bread right out of the oven! They are super moist and the spices really give it a good flavor. The banana and the walnuts add great nutrients, vitamins, and healthy fats. Enjoy!

 

Ingredients: (can be doubled/tripled, etc)

1/3 cup dry oats

1/3 cup nonfat cottage cheese

1/3 cup egg whites

1/2 of a small-med. banana

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp walnuts, chopped fine

OPTIONAL: 1 tsp of rum extract ( This made it taste like bananas foster MMM!)

 

Combine all egg whites, cottage cheese, and banana, and spices and blend thoroughly ( I used my magic bullet). Stir in your oats and blend again until smooth. You can stir in some/all of the walnuts now, or wait and top your pancakes when they are done. Cook the batter on the griddle until bubbly…flip until its brown on both sides.

I topped mine with Walden’s Farms Pancake Syrup and the chopped walnuts. Delicious!
