Golden Pancakes

serves 2(they warm in the microwave really good the following day)

1 cup uncooked whole-grain oats (non-instant)
6 egg whites
1 cup fat-free cottage cheese
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon-I use 1/2 tsp
1 tbsp agave nectar
1/4 any berries warmed slightly

lightly coat a non-stick skillet or griddle
place over medium heat

In a blender place cottage cheese, oatmeal and egg whites
blend for about 1 minute- till everything is chopped up
add vanilla, cinnamon and agave nectar
blend 30 seconds

Pour batter onto skillet 1/4 cup at a time(doesn't have to be exact)
Cook until batter is bubbly on top and dry around edges-about 3 mins
turn and cook other side about 2 more mins

While pancakes are cooking I warm the berries in the microwave for about 30 seconds until they are juicy-my favorites are blueberries with this. You can add sugar free maple syrup for your extra calories that day but I found the berry juice and the fact that the pancakes are so moist you don't need the extra syrup
