Helen'S High-Protein Low-Carb Pancakes
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup flax seed, ground
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Mix all ingredients together and stir well. (Optional: You may also add one packet of artificial sweetener if you are accustomed to recipes that call for sugar.).
- Spoon onto preheated, oiled griddle and cook as usual.
- Serve with butter and low-carb syrup, or sour cream and berries.
- 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.
