High Protein Mascarpone Pancakes

Ingredients

• 6 eggs
• 1 cup mascarpone cheese
• ¼ cup ground flax seeds
• ¼ cup chia seeds
• ½ teaspoons baking powder

• ½ teaspoon salt

1. Combine the flaxseed, chia seeds, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the eggs to the dry ingredients one at a time, whisking well after each egg.
2. Add the mascarpone cheese and whisk until smooth. Alternatively, put all of the ingredients into a blender to achieve the same results. If you want to sweeten the batter, add about a teaspoon of sugar substitute at this point and mix well.
3. Spray a griddle or non-stick skillet with cooking oil spray and set over medium-high heat.
4. Use a large spoon or, preferably, a ladle (this is the perfect size for cooking pancakes) to pour the pancake batter into the skillet once the skillet is hot.
5. Allow the pancake to cook for about 2 minutes before carefully flipping it over with a spatula. Cook the other side for about 2 minutes. Adjust the timing accordingly if you would prefer your pancakes more or less browned.
6. Serve pancakes with butter, low-carb syrup, sour cream or berries (blueberries are my favorite) — or any combination of these options!
