Protein Packed Pancakes!

Here's a GREAT recipe for some pancakes we came up with that are healthy too!  Here's what you will need:

2 whole eggs
2 egg whites
1 cup quick oats
1 1/2 scoops (45gr) of vanilla or unflavored Whey protein
1 Tbs olive oil
1 Tbs cinnamon (or to taste)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp stevia
1 tsp baking powder

Spray pan with non-stick cooking spray and heat.  In a blender add the oats and chop them up until they are close to a powder in consistency.  Add eggs, whey, cinnamon, vanilla extract, stevia, olive oil baking powder.  If the consistency is too thick you can thin it with a little water or skim milk until it's pour-able.  Pour onto pan in 4 to 5 inch diameter size and cook.  Makes about eight 4 to 5 inch pancakes.  Finish off with some spray butter, sugar free syrup or better yet...add some berries or bananas on top!
