Anybody have any good low-fat, low-carb breakfast recipes that aren't... well... an omlette?

Here's the low-fat recipes that you can try.

Applesauce Oatmeal Pancakes

While boxes of pancake mix are convenient, it really doesn't take much time to make your own pancake batter. For a little extra fiber, try these yummy applesauce oatmeal pancakes. Resist the temptation to top them with butter. A little maple syrup is perfect, or try some warmed applesauce and a sprinkling of cinnamon.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:

* 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (or substitute whole wheat flour for half the amount)
* 1/2 cup quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats
* 1/2 cup fat-free milk
* 1 tsp baking powder
* 1/2 tsp baking soda
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 1/4 cup sugar
* 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
* 2 large egg whites
* 1 tbsp canola oil

Preparation:
Place ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until well blended.

Heat a griddle to 375 degrees (medium). When griddle is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles appear and edges are puffed. Flip the pancakes and cook until golden.

Makes about 8 pancakes.
