Linda Sue, Oregonrene, Bruce Cream Cheese Pancakes Reviews Date of last review 8 Sat February 21, 2009 Recommended By Average Price Average Rating 88% of reviewers None indicated 9.0 Description: Good tasting pancakes with simple ingredients. Does not require bake mix. Ingredients: 2 egg yolks 2 egg whites 4 ounces cream cheese, softened How To Prepare: In a small bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. In another small bowl, beat the cream cheese and the yolks until well blended. Gently fold in the egg whites a little at a time. There's no need to be very careful when folding in the egg whites. I just sort of stirred them in gently with a rubber spatula. Heat a little oil and butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Don't let the butter get too dark. Ladle the batter into the hot oil, about one gravy ladle full for each. When well browned on the bottom, very carefully flip and cook the other side. They brown quite fast, so watch closely. Remove to a plate and keep warm. The pancakes are very puffy when first removed, but they flatten as they cool. Add more oil/butter to the pan for each batch, if necessary. Makes about 8-10 small pancakes (.5 carb each plus your toppings) These really taste just like pancakes and would be great with sugar-free maple syrup or other topping. ***If you'd like more *substantial* pancakes, add in 1/4 cup whey protein into the egg yolks and cheese. Add 2 tsp splenda to the egg whites. Add a little water for easier pouring.

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Fragile but GREAT with butter and syrup Cons: make maple syrup as follows: twice as much Splenda for Baking as water. Heat to boiling point. Add imiation maple flavoring to taste. to test this recipe, I used a quarter cup of Splenda, 1/8 cup water and put in the maple drop by drop until it was the color I liked.

	Review Date: Wed October 4, 2006 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 5    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great IF you like crepes Cons: couldn't get past the texture Although my hubby and I hated these, I still gave it a 5 because I s'pose some folks have a better imagination than us and will like them. A score of 5 is like a neutral I s'pose. It reminded me of putting syrup on scrambled eggs. Back when I ate real pancakes and eggs, I always put my eggs on a seperate saucer because I couldn't stand having the syrup get on my eggs. For folks who enjoy crepes (I don't) these would be a really good substitute. Now I know why so many topped these with fruit and whipped cream ... those are great toppings for crepes. :-) Btw, I tried cooking them several ways ... after we tried the first 2, I tried cooking them longer in hopes the texture would improve ... nope. Then I tried making them smaller and with more butter. Still unsuccessful. Sorry. I am really glad the recipe was made though because I am sure it is helping some who are really craving pancakes. Even if it helps only one not to cheat .... it is a great thing!

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Just Like the Real Thing Cons: These taste almost JUST like real pancakes (I know, I know it's hard to believe, but it's true) If you cook them right. It seems as though the more you "brown" the pancake the less egg flavor there is (and trust me there's not much). If you like your pancakes very lightly cooked then the texture/flavor may be a tad eggy. But if you don't mind your pancakes a tad browner than you will be love these. They go good with some Da Vinci Sugar Free Syrup.
