Egg White Sweet Tooth Breakfast

So as most of you know I have been on a 21 day detox.  Well I have to say that making pancakes each morning for my daughter had me yearning for something sweet for breakfast!  You know, eggs and egg whites get so old after a while.  So I decided to try something and it actually turned out pretty good!  I wanted to share the recipe so you guys could enjoy.

Ingredients Needed:

1/4 cup Almond Flour
6 tablespoons of Egg Whites
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup (divided)
1/4 cup of blueberries
1/2 cup of sliced strawberries

Step 1:
Take a bowl and combine almond flour, egg whites, vanilla, and ONE tablespoon of the maple syrup. Take some nonstick cooking spray and spray in an 8-10 inch pan (I think mine was a 10 inch, if you go smaller yours will just be thicker).  Make sure the heat on the stove is set medium to low because you don't want it to burn. You can see what it looks like below as it cooks.



Step 2:
Watch the mixture as it cooks.  You want the mixture to begin to be slightly thick enough to flip, so make sure it it browning on the bottom but not burning.  I used the spatula and just pressed down on the edges as it cooked.  When you are sure the mixture is cooked and strong enough to be flipped then flip it over just like a pancake.

As you can see, mine tore just a bit near the center so you have to be careful.  Still good to eat though!

Step 3:  
Once you have browned it on both sides, slide it out onto a plate.  Top it with the blueberries and the strawberries and then drizzle the last tablespoon of maple syrup on top!



Now you have a yummy sweet treat breakfast that only has 391 calories, and 17 grams of protein! This probably should not be an every morning thing, but it does help when you want something sweet and you do not want to feel guilty about it!  Enjoy and let me know what you think!
