Banana and Nut Protein Pancakes

A fellow personal trainer gave me a great recipe for protein pancakes. I tried it with bananas and choppped walnuts topped with sugar free syrup and it was awesome. I just had to share.

 Recipe makes for one serving

Ingredients:
1/3 cup oats (I used quick oats)
5 egg whites
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 small banana

Toppings:
1 Tbsp chopped walnuts
3 Tbsp sugar free syrup

Cooking Directions:
Heat a small to medium sized non-stick pan. Spray the pan with cooking spray. Put in the oats and nutmeg into a magic bullet. If you dont have a magic bullet you can use any standard blender. Blend until it has a flour consistency. Then add egg whites, half the banana and vanilla. Once all ingredients are blended pour the batter into the preheated pan. The edges wil start to bubble and once the underside is golden brown flip the pancake. Slice the rest of the banana on top of the pancakes and add chopped walnuts and sugar free syrup. Now enjoy!
