Blueberry Vanilla Protein Pancakes

I'm starting the Ultimate Reset with a group of friends on Wednesday and was craving some pancakes this morning before we start the cleanse. Dominic likes the "box kind" of pancakes, but I'm always trying to sneak in healthier recipes. I found this recipe on instagram and we both LOVED them!

1/2 cup dry oatmeal 
1/3 cup egg whites
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
1 T ground flaxseed
1/4 ripe banana
1 T greek yogurt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract

Blend this up in a blender and throw it on a hot pan. Drop some blueberries on top when the cakes are cooking. These pancakes will not bubble like normal pancakes, so keep an eye on the bottoms. 

Yield: 2 pancakes - I doubled the recipe to make 4 pancakes.
