Blueberry Oat Pancakes with Maple Yogurt

Ingredients
  • Rolled oats: 1 cup
  • Blueberries: 1 cup
  • Low-fat Yogurt (plain): ¾ cup
  • Low-fat Cottage Cheese: ½ cup
  • Eggs: 2 (large)
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp
  • Maple Syrup: 1 tbsp
  • Cooking spray
Method
Begin by blending the oats, cottage cheese, eggs, and vanilla extract in a blender. Ensure that you get a smooth mixture of the given ingredients. Once the smooth blend of oats is ready, mix the blueberries into it. Next, move on to heating a large skillet over medium heat, and coat it with cooking spray. Proceed by spreading some batter into the pan. 2 tablespoons per pancake should be sufficient. Cook for a couple of minutes, until you notice that the top and the edges look cooked. After that you carefully turn them over, and cook the other side too, preferably until it turns golden. Also prepare the maple yogurt by combining the two ingredients (maple syrup & yogurt), and serve alongside the pancakes.

Suggestion: If pancakes aren't your thing, you could also substitute it with waffles.
