High Protein Oatmeal Pancakes (GF)

If you’re looking for a delicious breakfast that the whole family will love, these protein oatmeal pancakes are perfect!

They’re simple to make, packed with protein (around 16 grams per serving!!), and gluten-free, ensuring everyone gets the nutrition they need while keeping the kids happy.

We mix these pancakes up in our Vitamix blender and then pour them onto our Blackstone for a quick and delicious breakfast.

Our kids absolutely love these pancakes—especially with a drizzle of maple syrup—but they’re just as delicious with butter or eaten plain.

We make a double batch of these protein oatmeal pancakes every weekend and save the batter to make more on busy weekday mornings. They’re a staple in our household!

Protein Oatmeal Pancakes Recipe

These pancakes come together in minutes using our Vitamix blender. However, you can blend the oatmeal first in a food processor and then mix everything else with a hand mixer, if you don’t have a blender.

Ingredients

• 1 cup gluten-free oats (we like these – you can also find them at Costco)

• 1 heaping cup cottage cheese

• 9 eggs (1.5 cups; using egg whites is an option, but using whole eggs adds more protein and healthy fats)

• 1 Tbsp Truvia (or your preferred sweetener)

• 1 Tbsp vanilla extract

• 1 Tbsp baking powder

Instructions

1. (Optional) Grind up the oatmeal – This step is only needed if you do not have a powerful blender. You can use a food processor or even a coffee bean grinder to grind up the oatmeal into a coarse powder. If you have a high-powered blender, you do not need to do this step.

2. Z Add the gluten-free oats, cottage cheese, and eggs into a blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

2. Add the Flavor and Lift: Once blended, add in the Truvia, vanilla extract, and baking powder. Blend briefly to mix everything together.

3. Cook the Pancakes: Heat a griddle or Blackstone over medium heat and pour the batter onto the pan to form pancakes. Cook until the edges are set and bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden and done through.

Lately we’ve been using our Blackstone to cook up big batches of these protein-packed pancakes and it goes even faster!
