Shanny Cakes

Here's a recipe I've had before (not since starting BFL) that makes a good "pancake" substitution. I first found it on Lowcarbfriends.com

4 egg whites (about 1/4 cup of egg substitute, maybe a tad more)
1/4 C nonfat cottage cheese (or nonfat yogurt)
1/2 C oats
four packets (2 tbs) of Splenda (or 1/8 cup sugar free syrup, such as DaVinci or Torani)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla

Blend in a blender until cottage cheese is smooth. Cook on a Pam-sprayed skillet like pancakes and enjoy! You can also make these into muffins by pouring batter halfway into cups of a muffin tin and baking at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.

Top these with some fat free butter spray and Walden Farms Zero Calorie Pancake Syrup and you're good to go! The whole recipe makes one serving, which has approximately
