Servings: persons

1 cup whole oats (Equal Weight) or 1 cup whole grain oat flour (Equal Weight)
3 ½ tablespoons sugar-free fiber supplement (Non-Flavored) (optional)
1 ½ tablespoons vital wheat gluten (optional)
½ cup non-fat powdered milk
½ cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 cups protein powder
½ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons sugar-free preserves (Strawberry, Apricot etc...)
5 teaspoons unsalted natural-style peanut butter or 5 teaspoons nut oil
1 ½ cups egg substitute or 1 ½ cups egg whites
3 cups fat-free buttermilk or 3 cups water
3 teaspoons vanilla extract

1
Grind the oats in a food processor, or equivalent, to a medium/fine texture.
2
Mix the first 9 ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
3
Mix the last 5 ingredients in a separate bowl.
4
Combine all the ingredients into one bowl and hand whisk them together (Do not use a mixer).
5
Mixing vigorously will cause the pancakes to be more flat and dense; ideally your mix should have a nice thick semi-smooth texture.
6
Warm a skillet, or griddle, to 275-300 degrees (approx.
7
med/high on a stove top).
8
Apply a 1/2 cup of the pancake mix for each pancake.
9
Use a pancake dispenser or a measuring cup to transfer the pancake mix from the bowl to the cooking surface.
10
Cook each pancake for approximately 6 minutes, flipping half way through (approx.
11
3 minutes per side).
12
Repeat steps 7-9 until all the pancake mix is used (yields approximately 14 medium sized pancakes).
13
Let each pancake cool for a minimum of 1-2 minutes and serve.
14
Add sugar free syrup, as desired, for a low calorie topping (approx.
15
35 calories per 1/4 cup).
16
Refrigerate or freeze the left-overs.
17
Enjoy!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
