Burn The Fat Recipes: High Protein Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Pancakes - The Ultimate Take-It With You Travel Meal!

A Note From Kyle Battis: I remember the first time I ever sampled this recipe that Tom is about to share with you. I LOVED THESE PANCAKES! Since first learning about this recipe I think I have made these every single week! They are tremendously nutritious, extremely portable, and super tasty (watch out Martha Stewart, here comes Tom Venuto!). Enjoy this Burn The Fat approved recipe!

This recipe makes one large (6-8" diameter) pancake and it's a complete meal (if you prefer you can use the same amount of ingredients and make two small pancakes for easier flipping and eating). If you need fewer calories to accommodate your personal nutrition plan, simply decrease the amounts of all ingredients proportionately to get the desired calorie content you want.

For example, 2/3 cup oatmeal and egg whites will make a medium pancake ideal in calorie content for women. (Most women require 300-360 calories per meal for fat loss programs and most men require 400-480 calories per meal for fat loss programs, based on 5-6 meals per day).

You can use other types of fruit such as bananas instead of apples (get as creative as you want - our members must have posted a dozen variations on these in the members-only recipe forum). Using a packet or two of sweetener is optional (try stevia if you prefer to avoid artificial sweeteners).

These taste pretty good just with the natural sweetness of the fruit. If you're on a higher calorie, higher carb plan, these pancakes are delicious with natural natural jelly on top (example, Polander's sugar free, all-fruit jelly).

If you need more or less calories, increase or decrease the amounts of the ingredients. If you use more than a cup of oatmeal, it's best to make two smaller pancakes, because if the pancake is too big, it tends to fall apart when you try to flip it.

If the batter consistency is not right, you can use fewer egg whites or more oatmeal to make it thicker, or vice versa. You can also add water if it's too thick. To add calories, you can also use one or more whole eggs. I usually use 3-4 whites and 1 whole egg myself.

This is truly the ultimate travel meal because you can take it with you and it stays fresh for an entire day without refrigeration. It is also "finger food" and you can eat it conveniently a little piece at a time even while you're behind the wheel driving, flying on a plane, sitting in class or at a seminar, hiking up in the mountains, or just about anywhere else!

No doubt, this one recipe will become a favorite and a staple in your weekly menu plans. Best part -- oatmeal pancakes get an "A-grade", they are Burn The Fat program approved and they're so easy to make that even a kitchen dummy can do it.

Enjoy!
