Scrambled pancakes with cottage cheese & strawberry jam

We're loving our low carb Scrambled pancakes with a little something sweet on the side. If you can't get perfectly ripe strawberries from the market, frozen berries work too. This easy breakfast brings it all to the table — it's gluten-free, high in protein, higher-satiety, and most importantly, high in satisfaction!

    Wonder if you could substitute mascarpone or softened cream cheese for the cottage cheese.

    We haven't tried that, but it should work fine!

    Instead of almond flour, I've been using protein powder 31g scoop, unflavored. I know it changes the carb amounts and the protein amount. What do you think?

    How do they taste? Adding more protein certainly isn't a bad thing!

    What can you use besides the psyllium husk powder?

    There are some sub suggestions here, but the psyllium would work best! https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/guides/psyllium-husk
