Low-Carb Pancakes (Bran Flakes)
(1 serving)
- 10 large egg whites
-
1/4 cup unprocessed bran flakes
-
1 packet artificial sweetener
-
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
-
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
1 dash nutmeg
In a medium glass or metal bowl (don't use plastic), whip all of the egg whites with the cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. This usually takes a few minutes.
Add all the remaining ingredients and mix well. Cook on a lightly greased skillet as you would any pancake recipe. Drop batter on surface by large spoonfuls. Cook until each side is lightly browned.
Serve with butter and a low-carb store bought syrup. Or for an interesting low-carb topping, mix 1 Tablespoon of sugar-free jam with 1 and 1/2 Tablespoons water and microwave for 45 seconds.
