Oat Bran Pancakes
No wheat, no flour, still "fluffy."
These things are surprisingly filling. Kids probably won't like them unless you take the flax out. Do what you will...
Makes 4 servings
3/4 cup oat bran
1/4 cup flax meal
1 tsp baking powder
104g of protein worth of vanilla protein powder (yes, that's 4 scoops of Body Fortress Vanilla)
4 omega-3 eggs
water
2 tbsp butter, divided
1 cup sugar free syrup, divided
In a bowl, mix the oat bran through protein powder together. Add the egg and stir until combined. Slowly add water until you have it the consistency of pancake mix.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. It's ready when a drop of water dances on the surface of the pan. Pour pancakes to desired size -- I made two big ones per serving, but you can do silver dollar size, too.. As bubbles start to form, check the bottom by gently lifting the edge with a spatula. Flip when lightly brown. The second side cooks faster, so check regularly!

I am so making these. Of course since I can't find certified gluten free oat bran, I'll make oat flour with my certified gluten free oats ... but otherwise, they look yummy!!!
ReplyDeleteLost dog - I just found your blog and JPFitness thread...I have a TRX but haven't used it much beyond the manual due to an injury. I am ready to get back to it, but am curious: what is an assisted pistol? And I couldn't figure out a better place to post this...sorry, it has nothing to do with food. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteJulie - I used to make them with oat flour all the time. Very good.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - As assisted pistol is basically a one legged squat (pistol) where you use the trx for balance. It allows you to lean back more and give yourself a slight pull to stand back up.
Enjoy the TRX and hope you recover quickly!
