A Diet You Can Live With

Serves 6 to 8

Macadamia nut oil in a spray bottle:

1 cup oat bran cereal, uncooked

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1/4 cup lo-han or 3 packets of stevia

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Pinch of salt:


2 cups heavy cream

2 eggs

 

Heat a nonstick griddle that has been lightly oiled with macadamia nut oil over medium-high heat. Combine the oat bran, flour, sweetener, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Set aside.

Beat the heavy cream and eggs in a small bowl with a wire whisk. Pour the egg mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir together until the ingredients are just blended and no large dry lumps appear. Pour approximately 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto a hot, lightly oiled griddle. Cook until the pancakes are puffed, browned and slightly dry around the edges. Flip, then cook the other side until golden brown, about 2 minutes.

The recipe comes from a new cookbook created by Fred Pescatore, M.D., a traditionally trained physician who practices nutritional medicine, and Chef Jeff Harter.

Complete with glossy four-color photos of many of the dishes, it offers a sensible, easy-to-follow program, based on the long-proven healthful features of the Mediterranean way of life, combined with the best features of a low-carb diet. In "The Hamptons Diet Cookbook" (Wiley), Dr. Pescatore provides the latest information about eating to prevent heart disease, cancer and diabetes, along with such healthy shopping tips as: "If the word 'whole' does not appear on the ingredients list, you are not getting whole-grain bread."
