INGREDIENTS

1 cup liquid egg whites

0.5 cup low-fat cottage cheese

0.25 cup oat flour

1 medium banana

1 tsp ghee

1 tbsp maple syrup

0.5 tsp ground cinnamon

0.5 tsp vanilla extract

0.25 tsp baking powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a high-speed blender, combine the liquid egg whites, cottage cheese, oat flour, half of the banana, cinnamon, vanilla, baking powder, and sea salt.

• 2

  Blend on high for 30-45 seconds until the batter is completely smooth and slightly aerated.

• 3

  Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly coat with a small amount of ghee if necessary.

• 4

  Pour the batter into the skillet to form 3 or 4 small pancakes; cook for 3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown.

• 5

  While the pancakes are finishing, slice the remaining half of the banana into thin rounds.

• 6

  In a separate small skillet, melt the ghee over medium heat and add the banana slices and maple syrup.

• 7

  Sauté the bananas for 2 minutes until they are soft and the syrup has thickened into a fragrant glaze.

• 8

  Stack the pancakes on a plate, top with the caramelized banana slices, and drizzle any remaining warm syrup from the pan over the top.
