Oatmeal Pancake
3 egg whites
1/2 cup of uncooked oatmeal
cinnamon
Mix all together in a bowl, pour in a heated, sprayed pan and wa la...
I put unsweetened applesauce on it instead of syrup...it goes great with the cinnamon!
Enjoy!
I made this granola. It was great. It yielded just about 5 quarts! I froze 4 and put one quart at a time in the fridge.
I added it to my yogurt in the morning. Great on the go and very healthy.
It's called Spa Granola!
8 cups rolled oats
1 cup wheat or oat bran
1 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup chopped almonds
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup unsweetened apple juice
4 tablespoons vegetable oil (canola, sunflower, or safflower)
4 tablespoons honey or pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon almond extract
juice and zest of 1 orange (organic)
juice and zest of 1 lemon (organic)
1. Preheat oven to 300*
2. In a large bowl, combine oats, bran, wheat germ, almonds, sunflower seeds, cinnamon, cardamon, and ginger, and mix well.
3. In a medium saucepan, combine the apple juice, oil, honey, vanilla, almond extract, orange juice and zest, lemon juice and zest.
Heat gently on low until warm. Pour over dry ingredients and mix throughly.
4. Spread the granola mixture on a baking sheet and pat down to about 1/2 inch thick. Bake for 10-15 minutes, turning and mixing
