💡 Notes & Tips
- Weight Watchers Points (per serving, ~3 pancakes): 3 points with oats, 2 points with almond flour (using low-fat cottage cheese).
- Make-ahead: Cook, cool, and refrigerate up to 3 days, or freeze with parchment between pancakes. Reheat in toaster or skillet.
- For extra fluff: Separate the eggs, whip the whites, and fold in gently.
