BANANA SILVER DOLLAR PROTEIN PANCAKES

Babyfood isn't just for babies. Being the mom of an infant means I have plenty of baby food on hand. So I pulled out a box of his Organic Whole Grain Oatmeal Cereal with Bananas, which is actually made out of oat flour, and ended up making some pretty delicious, healthy and completely satisfying pancakes. 

Even Bradley loved these and was begging for more. Of course, I did not let him have any with the sugar free syrup. I try to avoid feeding him anything "chemically engineered or unnatural" if possible. 

Banana Silver Dollar Protein Pancakes

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup liquid 100% egg whites
• 1/2 cup Organic Whole Grain Oatmeal Cereal with Bananas (I used Earth's Best but you can use anything similar)
• Optional Toppings: Fresh fruit, sugar free or light maple syrup, cinnamon, honey, peanut butter or PB2. You can also add a tsp of stevia to your first 2 ingredients or after your pancakes are prepared for additional sweetness.   

Directions

• In a bowl mix egg whites and cereal. This will thicken in once mixed and should be the consistency of a light paste. You can add additional egg whites to make it thinner if you would like.
• Preheat a griddle or frying pan on medium high heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray (I used the butter flavor). 
• Spoon out small amounts of the batter and add directly to frying pan or griddle. I made 3 silver dollar pancakes with this recipe, however, you can make it into 1 or 2 or even double the recipe for more. 
• Reduce heat to medium to avoid burning your pancakes. 
• After about a minute, flip each pancake with a spatula and continue cooking until each side is browned. 
• Add to your plate and top with syrup and sliced fruit. Yum Yum!!
