Ingredients
- 1+1/8 cup (250g) low-fat cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup (63g) flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
Step 1: Mix Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed.
Add the cottage cheese, vanilla extract, and honey (if using). Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 2: Prepare Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Step 3: Combine Ingredients
Gradually pour the dry mixture into the wet mixture. Stir until just combined to avoid overmixing.
Alternative: You can place all ingredients into a blender and blend until you get a smooth mixture. This can make the process quicker and ensure a lump-free batter.
Step 4: Cook the Pancakes
Heat a large pan over medium heat. Lightly coat it with oil or cooking spray.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the pan for each pancake (you can use a ladle).
Cook for 1–2 minutes on each side, or until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through.
Serving Tips
Serve these delicious cottage cheese pancakes warm with a side of fresh fruit, a drizzle of additional honey or maple syrup, and a dollop of Greek yogurt if you like.
These fluffy pancakes are not only delicious, but also provide a great source of protein to kickstart your day. We hope you enjoy making and eating them as much as we do!
