Oatmeal Pancakes with Ketogenic Mousse

Oatmeal Pancakes with Ketogenic Mousse.

Traditional and Thermomix Recipe.

Now a cult in protein and non-protein diets, we find various recipes adapted for all types of diets, from protein to Mediterranean and ketogenic.

They represent a valid example of breakfast and also snack if the ingredients are well balanced. In fact, they must contain a good dose of fibers, proteins, sugars, and carbohydrates, without forgetting the indulgence they must show.

That’s why today I wanted to enrich them with a chocolate almond mousse and berries, which do not contain much sugar and with their acidity contrast the richness of the pancake and the “sweetness” of the mousse.
