Fluffy Cottage Cheese Pancakes Recipe

by

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)
  • 2 tbsp milk (any kind)
  • 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Mix the Batter:
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, then add cottage cheese, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
  2. Add Dry Ingredients:
    Add flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix — the batter will be a bit lumpy from the cottage cheese.
  3. Heat the Pan:
    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
  4. Cook the Pancakes:
    Pour ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes on one side until bubbles form on top and edges are set. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Serve:
    Serve warm with fresh fruit, maple syrup, honey, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
