HEALTHY APPLE CINNAMON PANCAKES
Soft apple and cinnamon pancakes made with white whole wheat flour, honey, grated apples and cinnamon. They make the best fall breakfast!
INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 cup diced apples
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup egg whites
- 2/3 cup old fashioned oatmeal
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 cup applesauce
- maple syrup, for topping
- Cinnamon Apples
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup diced apples
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup
INSTRUCTIONS
First, add the oats, egg whites, cottage cheese, applesauce, baking powder and cinnamon to a blender and mix until the dough is relatively smooth with a thick consistency. Stir in the diced apples.
Then, heat the pan or hot plate over medium-low heat and spray with a non-stick spray.
When hot, remove about a quarter cup of dough at a time and pour over the pan. You should be able to make about 8 small pancakes.
Cook until small bubbles form and the edges of the pancakes are strong enough to put a spatula underneath. Turn over the pancakes and cook for another one to two minutes.
While the pancakes cook, prepare the cinnamon apples by adding diced apples, maple syrup and cinnamon to a microwave-safe bowl. Stir to combine and microwave for 30 to 60 seconds or until the apples are tender and resemble cooked apples.
To serve, place four pancakes on each plate, garnish with warm cinnamon apples and drizzle with maple syrup and / or nut butter.
Happy Cooking Time.
