Cream Cheese Pancakes

 

ingredients

Amounts below are per serving.  Multiply for additional servings.

• 2 oz cream cheese
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp sugar substitute
• Splash of heavy cream

Directions

• Heat griddle or medium size pan over medium heat 
• Put all ingredients in a food processor or blender and mix until smooth
• Once pan is hot enough that a drop of water sizzles in the pan, coat generously with nonstick spray, ghee, butter or coconut oil
• Pour 1/4 C batter in pan and cook until bubbles form on top, about 2-3 minutes
• Flip and cook an additional 1 minute
• Repeat with the rest of the batter
• Top with butter, berries, sugar free syrup or my favorite, whipped cream.

Modifications

• This can also be made as waffles by using a waffle iron instead of pan or griddle. Be sure to coat the waffle iron with generously with nonstick spray, ghee, butter, or coconut oil.
• Add cinnamon, sugar free chocolate chips, or blueberries to the batter for something different.  
• These are not traditional fluffy pancakes and are more of a crepe-like consistency.  If you prefer fluffier pancakes, the following modification can be made. For each, the final product will be fluffier and more dense. Add 1/4 C of ONE of the following:
  • Coconut flour – will have a coconut taste
  • Collagen powder – if using a flavored collagen powder, they will take on that flavor
  • Protein powder – if using a flavored protein powder, they will take on that flavor
