Best. Breakfast. EVER! These bad boys saved my sanity when I was trying really hard to cut down on my sugar & really limit calorie intake to hit my weight loss goals. This is in large part due to the fact that I discovered the miracle that is Joseph’s Maple Syrup, a low calorie replacement for real maple syrup. It’s rich & thick & utterly amazing.It makes me lick the plate every time!
But even a year plus after I’ve lost the weight… these guys are still one of my favorite Sunday morning treats!
As with many of my recipes, there are numerous variations. This version of the recipe is one I used AFTER my initial “no sugar” 21-day detox, as it uses one instant oatmeal packet as part of the recipe (which can add the most delicious flavors!). If you want a cleaner version of this, just replace the oatmeal packet with ¼ cup plain oats & add stevia + cinnamon to taste.

Ingredients:
1 Cinnamon Spice instant oatmeal packet (mix up the flavors for variety… so many good ones out there like peaches & cream, pumpkin, & banana nut!!)
½ scoop vanilla protein powder
1-2 tbsp. egg whites (just enough to make a batter-y consistency)
a dash of extra cinnamon
¼ cup fresh blueberries
2-3 tbsp. Joseph’s Maple Syrup

½ scoop vanilla protein powder
1-2 tbsp. egg whites (just enough to make a batter-y consistency)
a dash of extra cinnamon
¼ cup fresh blueberries
2-3 tbsp. Joseph’s Maple Syrup
Heat up a griddle or pan while you mix the batter. In a measuring cup, mix the oats, protein powder, cinnamon, & egg whites. Once they are all nicely mixed into a batter-like consistency, stir in the blueberries. Pour the mixture onto a medium hot griddle or pan & cook approximately 2 minutes on each side. Once done, flip out of the pan, onto a plate, top with Joseph’s amazing maple syrup (or the syrup of your choice) & enjoy!!
