Fluffy Oat Bran Pancakes: A Feather-Light Breakfast Delight

These pancakes are the epitome of a healthy indulgence. They're light as a feather, thanks to a secret ingredient: beaten egg whites, folded into the batter to create a cloud-like texture. These heart-healthy pancakes are a delightful way to start your day, offering a satisfying blend of wholesome oat bran and just a touch of sweetness.

A Culinary Cloud

These pancakes aren't just delicious; they're also a nutritional powerhouse. Oat bran is a champion of soluble fiber, which helps regulate blood sugar levels and keeps you feeling full and energized. And with minimal sodium and fat, these pancakes are a guilt-free indulgence that will nourish your body and delight your senses.

Crafting Culinary Clouds

Ingredients:

  • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup oat bran
  • 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fat-free milk
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 2 egg whites
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • ½ cup sugar-free pancake and waffle syrup
  • 1 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel

Directions:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, oat bran, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Add the milk and oil to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter.
  4. Lightly coat an unheated griddle or large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat over medium heat.
  5. For each pancake, pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle or skillet. If necessary, spread the batter to form a 4-inch circle.
  6. Cook for about 2 minutes per side, or until the pancakes are golden brown. Flip when the pancakes have bubbly surfaces and the edges are slightly dry.
  7. While the pancakes are cooking, prepare the orange syrup. In a small saucepan, warm the sugar-free pancake syrup. Stir in the orange peel.
  8. Serve the pancakes with the warm orange syrup. If desired, garnish with orange wedges.

A Berrylicious Variation

For a fruitier twist, try adding ½ cup of fresh blueberries to the batter after pouring it onto the hot griddle. Continue cooking as directed.
