Protein Pancakes

Ingredients: 

• 1 16-ounce tub of cottage cheese

• 5-6 eggs

• 1-2 heaping tbsp GF pancake mix

• Salt and cinnamon to taste, if desired

• 1 cup frozen wild blueberries

• Coconut oil for frying

Instructions:

1. Turn skillet on medium heat and add 2-3 tbsp coconut oil

2. Blend top 4 ingredients until smooth

3. Stir in (don't blend) blueberries (best if used frozen to thicken batter)

4. Fry on each side 3-4 minutes (a lid helps batter to cook more evenly)

5. Top with maple syrup and enjoy!

Tips:

• Think outside the recipe: add flax seed, shredded coconut or other fruit to increase fiber and try topping with fresh fruit!

• You could also include a couple of sausage links.
