Here is a delicious and healthy pancake recipe that families will love. This is a real food recipe. The best part is that the protein is boosted so that it will help balance you and your child’s blood sugar so they don’t crash in the middle of school.
Healthy Pancake Recipe
Pancakes are a childhood classic! We LOVE pancakes! Here is a yummy recipe that quickly became our families our go-to recipe because all the extra protein kept us full and satisfied all day long!
Depending on your health goals and feelings about organic ingredients, artificial sweeteners, and fat in food you can make choices about the ingredients you put in. We used all organic, full fat ingredients with whole eggs and real maple syrup which produces the numbers on the upper end below. If you use fat free, egg whites, and stevia you will get the lowest numbers below:
We mix up the entire pancake batter in a food processor. Start with 1 cup of cottage cheese blended 20 seconds or so; until smooth.
Now add 5 eggs or 1 cup egg whites and blend until combined.
Add a dash of vanilla extract, 2 teaspoons baking soda, and 1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup or Stevia.
Add 1 cup almond flour.
You are going to love this flour alternative. Not only is it low in carbohydrates and high in protein, but it adds a wonderful buttery nutty taste you’ll love!
Blend for the last time and you are left with this perfect pancake batter.
Now put 1/4 cup of pancake batter per pancake on a hot griddle (about 375 F).
Flip after a couple minutes when slightly bubbly on the top and golden brown on the bottom. Cook a couple additional minutes.
Serve pancakes warm. We like to top ours with fresh fruit and a squirt of homemade whipping cream.
