Ingredients

cup full-fat soy flour

2 cups cottage cheese

1 tablespoon oil

8 eggs

cup vanilla protein powder

1 tablespoon DaVinci Splenda-sweetened vanilla syrup

1 teaspoon nutmeg

1 teaspoon cinnamon

2 pkt Splenda

(or sweetener to taste)

Preparation

Place all the ingredients in a blender and mix well. Pour onto heated griddle into circles. They spread out so allow room! Cook, watching carefully to avoid burning and turning as appropriate.

This recipe yields approximately 40 (4-inch) pancakes; less than 1 carb gram per pancake.

Comments: Add syrup, if desired, but these are great with just butter! The vanilla flavoring gives these pancakes a 'pastry' taste, as opposed to the more 'floury' taste of ordinary pancakes. Make the entire batch, have a few 'fresh off the griddle', then let the rest cool individually. Place them in little serving-size sandwich bags and freeze to reheat later for breakfasts, snacks or mini-breads!
