Nope. Not a typo. I really meant to say “flat”jacks! These flapjacks are really thin. I like my pancakes really thin, I’m not sure why, but when I cook them, I’m always smushing them down with the spatula. I’m just weird. Leave me alone! These are thin, but they’re really good with a creamier texture! Kind of a twist of these Lemon Ricotta Pancakes that I make (I’ll save those for a later date)!
If you follow my blog then you know that I basically live for Cinnamon Toast (or anything cinnamon)! Last night we made brinner (get it? Breakfast for dinner) and I decided I wanted cinnamon toast but my husband and kids wanted pancakes. They ate theirs with syrup instead, but the sugar-free syrup I had at home was nasty (I tried a different brand, big mistake) and I don’t like to use that often since I can’t find any brands that are sweetened with Stevia instead of gross crap. So, I thought I’d try them with cinnamon and sugar! I loved them and will definitely make them again!
Ingredients
1/2 c. nonfat ricotta cheese
6 tbsp oat flour
1/4 c. unsweetened almond milk
1 “twist” of sea salt grinder (sorry, that is sooo not a measurement)
1 tsp cinnamon (optional, I just really like cinnamon)
3 egg whites
Topping
cinnamon
Truvia
coconut oil
Directions
Mix all ingredients (except topping) together (I used my little bullet blender thingy). Cook like regular pancakes. When still warm spread with a tiny bit of coconut oil. You really don’t need a lot! Then sprinkle with cinnamon and Truvia. I don’t know how much since I already have it in a shaker pre-mixed…I wasn’t kidding. We eat a ton of cinnamon toast in our house!


looks very tasty!! and clean! I don’t make pancakes hardly ever, but i really should you guys all have great creative recipes
Hey Amanda, thank you! And, yes, give them a shot, let me know what you think!!
Holy moly. These look fantastic. Cinnamon Toast Crunch was my favorite cereal growing up. Not quite the same, but I still think I will love these just as much.
Amanda, me too! But I had to drink the milk out of a cup not in the bowl because it washed all the cinnamon and sugar off!! Hope you like them!
I am such a fan of ricotta cheese, I never thought of using it this way.
My Aunt used to use it in her pancakes…I can’t take all the credit
