Here’s a recipe for 0-point protein pancakes (like the ones in Weight Watchers / WW), meaning they’re low-calorie, high-protein, and can usually be eaten without using points if you’re on the program. These are also simple, healthy, and fluffy! 🥞
0-Point Protein Pancakes
Ingredients (makes 2–3 pancakes)
- 1/2 cup oats (or oat flour)
- 1/2 cup egg whites (or about 4 large egg whites)
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce or water/milk alternative for moisture
Optional add-ins (still usually 0 points in WW):
- Blueberries, raspberries, or sliced banana
- Sugar-free syrup or zero-calorie sweetener
Instructions
- Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth (or mix thoroughly if using oat flour).
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Spray lightly with non-stick spray if needed.
- Pour batter to form small pancakes.
- Cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
- Serve warm with berries, sugar-free syrup, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Tips
- For fluffier pancakes, let the batter sit 5 minutes before cooking.
- If using whole oats, blending makes them smoother and more like traditional pancake batter.
- You can double or triple the recipe and freeze leftovers for easy breakfasts.
