WLS breakfast recipes

BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP PANCAKES

1/3 cup flour

1/2 cup almond flour

1 tablespoon Splenda

1 teaspoon baking powder

3/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Pinch of salt

1/3 cup plain yogurt

1 egg

1 tablespoon melted butter

1/2 cup milk

1/4 teaspoon vanilla

3/4 cup finely diced bananas

2 tablespoons sugar-free mini chocolate chips

In a medium bowl stir together flour, almond flour, Splenda, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside. In another bowl whisk until combined yogurt, egg, butter, milk, and vanilla. Add wet ingredients to dry and stir just until moistened. Gently fold in bananas and chocolate chips. Heat frying pan or griddle over medium-low and lightly grease. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto pan and cook, turning once.

Makes 6 servings (three pancakes each). Per Serving: 182 Cal; 7 g Protein; 10 g Tot Fat; 18 g Carb; 2 g Fiber; 6 g Sugar; 193 mg Sodium

Cream Cheese Pancakes

8oz. soft cream cheese ( next time I will use Light)

3 eggs

2 tablespoons of protein powder (I used a plain PP)

2 teaspoons of vanilla

3 packets of splenda

Whip the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the remaining ingredients slowly. Spray with non-cooking spray.

Pour in the batter and fry up like pancakes! You want the pancakes to be full of dry holes before you flip 'em. If they're not ready to flip, they'll break apart.

Top with butter and SF pancake syrup, or cream cheese and sugar free jam and enjoy! Apple Sauce would be good too...

My DH loved them and I have to make more!!! I put SF raspberry jam on them this morning and it tasted like a jelly doughnut!!!!!!

Cottage Cheese Pancakes (soft-regular stage)

These are melty, cheesy, with bits of onion... really good, and almost all protein! A very surprising dish given the 5 ingredients that are used. Double or triple this recipe and serve to the family... everyone will love these!

Half a medium onion, chopped

1 tablespoon butter

1 egg

1/2 cup cottage cheese

2 tablespoons flour

salt

pepper

Saute the onion in the butter until golden... allow to cool in pan. In a small bowl, beat egg slightly, blend in cottage cheese, flour, salt and pepper, and onion butter mixture. Heat nonstick skillet, spray with Pam, and place four 1/4 cup scoops of batter and spread into small pancakes. Cook until browned... flip and cook until lightly brown on other side. YUMMY! ~~~~~

CHEESY EGG BAKE

6 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 cup milk

1 cup cottage cheese

4 ounces cream cheese cubed

1 cup cubed sharp cheddar

In a large bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Whisk in flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, seasoning, milk, and cottage cheese. Stir in cubed cheeses. Pour into greased 9x9 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until puffed, golden and set. Makes eight servings.

Breakfast Muffins in a Minute

1/4 Cup Flaxseed Meal

1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 tablespoon Splenda (optional)

1 egg

Mix everything together in a coffee cup. Cook for one minute in the microwave. Turn the cup upside down to take the muffin out. If it looks wet, let it sit for a minute or so. I have these for breakfast. You can add blueberries, or try other additions. Some people add a tablespoon of cream cheese before cooking.

Berry & Cream Cheese Protein Crepes

1/2 cup of ff cottage cheese to my magic bullet or other small blender cup

one egg white or one whole egg or liquid egg white to equal one egg (I use liquid egg white most often)

2 T flour

1 t. vanilla

a dash of salt (i skip this)

Splenda to taste - I use about 2 T

Pulse until smooth (thick batter consistency)

On a hot grill (works so much better than a pan in my experience) spray the nonstick griddle with butter Pam and pour the batter out in 4 even pancakes. I didn't do anything else at this point except wait for the batter to cook to firm and then flipped the cakes over to cook the rest of the way.

I pulled these off and added whipped fat free cream cheese and sugar free preserves and folded over.

Sprinkled with a smidgen of powdered sugar to add a bit of decadence to the plate. They were perfect and so easy. When I used the bullet to mix I had very nice pancakes - Absolutely NO STRESS whatsoever with them falling apart when using the small blender to mix them.

Used frozen mixed berries with spenda to taste and simmered on stove top til thicker cosistancy.
