- 2 large eggs (or 3 egg whites)
- ½ cup Greek yogurt (or cottage cheese)
- ½ cup milk of choice (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
- Blend the Batter:In a blender, combine oats, protein powder, eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, baking powder, vanilla, and cinnamon. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Add Blueberries:Gently fold in the blueberries using a spoon. Don’t blend them, or the batter will turn purple.
- Cook the Pancakes:Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly spray with oil. Pour about ¼ cup batter for each pancake. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form, then flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden and fluffy.
- Stack and Serve:Stack the pancakes on a plate and top with extra blueberries, honey, maple syrup, or nut butter. Serve warm and enjoy!
