Ingredients
| 2 cup / 500 ml | large flake rolled oats |
| 3/4 cup / 175 ml | Naturegg Simply Egg Whites, well shaken |
| 1/2 cup / 125 ml | 2% cottage cheese |
| 1/4 cup / 50 ml | mashed banana or plain unsweetened applesauce |
| 1/4 cup / 50 ml | 2% milk |
| 1 tbsp / 15 ml | baking powder |
| 1 1/2 tsp / 7 ml | vanilla extract |
| Pinch | salt |

Directions
Combine oats, egg whites, cottage cheese, banana, milk, baking powder, vanilla and salt in a high-powered blender. Blend until smooth.
Drop batter by scant 1/4 cup (50 ml) portions onto a greased griddle or large nonstick skillet; cook until bubbles appear on one side, flip and cook until golden. Serve with berries and maple syrup to taste.
Tips
Pour the batter into a pitcher and mix in flavour additions such as frozen blueberries or raspberries, chopped fresh strawberries or mini chocolate chips by hand.
Use certified gluten-free oats for a gluten-free option.
If batter thickens upon standing, add a little extra milk and re-blend until pourable.

To make folding egg white mixtures easier; whisk a small dollop of whipped egg whites into whatever your mixture is first to lighten it, then add the rest.
