INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup all-purpose flour (or oat flour for a healthier option)
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional, adjust to taste)
- Pinch of salt
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- Blend or mix:
In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, flour, baking powder, vanilla, sugar, and salt. Mix well until smooth (or blend in a food processor for an ultra-smooth texture). - Preheat pan:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil. - Cook the pancakes:
Pour about 2–3 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. - Serve:
Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh berries, honey, or a dollop of yogurt.
Tip: These pancakes are naturally high in protein thanks to the cottage cheese and eggs—perfect for a healthy breakfast or post-workout meal.
