Fluffy Protein Pancakes

I'm constantly trying new things with breakfast now because I've never been very good about making myself eat breakfast on a regular basis. I found a new recipe for protein pancakes and ended up LOVING it. It's super easy too so you should give it a try!

- 3/4 cup oats (ground up to make a flour-like consistency. I used my food processor because I'm fucking obsessed with it and it only took 30 seconds!)
- 1/3 cup liquid egg whites (Or you can just use 1 full egg & then just the whites from another. I'm not one of those people that necessarily believes the yolk is bad for you, that's where all the protein is!)
- 1 tablespoon  fat free greek yogurt
- Stevia to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- dash of salt (optional)

- Protein frosting: 1/4 cup greek yogurt mixed with Stevia to taste.

Mix all ingredients up. The thicker the consistency, the thicker the pancakes. However, if it ends up seeming too think, just add a little bit of water. Just a little bit though (I did). Use your spoon to spread batter onto pan rather than pouring it in. Cook on medium heat and enjoy. I was able to make 3 small thick pancakes and then I just layered the frosting in between cakes. Next time I'd like to add more frosting though because the cakes are a bit dry. Anyway, I hope you love em as much as I do!
