Directions
Helen’s High-Protein Low-Carb Pancakes,My mom invented this recipe a few years ago for our low carb lifestyle. It makes a nice break from eggs. We have often served these pancakes to guests not on a diet and they enjoy them too. It’s a great way to get your omega-3’s from flax. The recipe is very flexible, and you don’t even need to measure the ingredients–just eyeball the proportions, or vary it to suit yourself after you’ve gotten the idea. I have used sour cream or cottage cheese instead of ricotta, and it works just as well (plain yogurt would be good, too). Cottage cheese makes a very tender, flavorful pancake, but omit the salt because cottage cheese is quite salty compared to the others.,They look fantastic!. I’m concerned the calories. They are high. Fat free or low fat ricotta would bring them way down. I love the cabs count though. Great job on that.,Good melt down food. Saved my sanity today. Topped it with honey and felt like I’d indulged way more than I actually had. Awesome recipe!

Note: If You Want the Batter a Little Thinner, Stir in Water, 1 Tablespoon at a Time. Batter Will Thicken as It Sits, So If You Refrigerate It Till the Next Day, You Will Probably Need to Thin It. If the Batter Is Too Thin, Stir in a Little More Flax. |

Also Note: Flax Seed Should Always Be Fresh Ground (keep a Dedicated Coffee Grinder For This Purpose) or Stored in the Freezer. You May Use Either Regular (brown) Flax, or Golden Flax, Which Produces a Lighter Texture and Color. You Can Often Get It in Bulk Bins at Your Health Food Store For a Great Price. |
