Creativity is the Answer.......
Hello everyone. For most of us in Australia we are in the midst of Term 1 School Holidays. I love these holidays because the weather is PERFECT and life seems just right (I love going to bed and waking in the crisp air).
This morning we had one of those ‘lazy’ mornings – a morning when breakfast didn’t really get started until 10am. The troop (my children plus Belinda’s daughter Brittany who was here for a sleep over) finally found themselves hungry and requested Pancakes - so Pancakes it would be. I began preparing the necessary ingredients only to find that we were out of flour (a required ingredient for the ‘perfect’ pancake).
Instead of disappointing my loyal troop I jumped online and googled ‘Flourless Pancakes’ hoping that old faithful (google) wouldn’t let me down. To my surprise up came a recipe and I happened to have everything on hand so I went to making this new Pancake. You HAVE to read the recipe and be as shocked as I was:
Ingredients:
1/3 cup Oats
1/3 cup 1% Cottage Cheese
1 whole egg
1 egg WHITE
1 Tablespoon Sugar
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
Cinnamon
Method:
1. Combine all ingredients and mix really well with a hand beater.
2. Pour into a hot, no-stick pan and cook like a regular pancake.
3. Turn pancakes when bubbles form on uncooked top.
4. Serve with Maple Syrup (and cream if you’ve never tried), Lemon and Sugar, bananas, fresh fruit or whatever your favorite topping is.
These Pancakes were INCREDIBLE. The kids gobbled them up and they couldn’t taste a difference. They were non the wiser and I didn’t disappoint them after saying ‘yes’ to their request. I guess I just stepped out of the box today, allowed creativity to flow and choose to look further than the empty flour jar. I’m so glad I did because I learned something new today.
Give them a go and enjoy. I’m going to try them again but substitute Ricotta for the Cottage Cheese.

What a fantastic idea, who would of thought of making these. I am going to try these for sure. Thanks for finding this yummy thing for us to make together.
Oh my goodness I can't believe it. Who comes up with these things? I can't believe it tastes like REAL Pancakes. I guess I'll have to give them a try.

Rita,
Have fun making them. I honestly couldn't believe it myself. When you mix them up your mind is definately ticking away thinking these can't work however once they start to cook they puff up and expand beautifully. They almost look a little to runny when you put them in the pan but don't fear....they come out just right. Make sure you mix really well. Let me know how they come out and if you enjoy them.

Lucky you had cottage cheese and rolled oats!! I will definitely give them a go. Sam
Hey Susan,
The kids LOVE pancakes, but for some reason Connor is really sick afterwards. I'm think it could be flour so will definitely give your pancakes a go! Joelle
