Cooking Time | 15-20 minutes |
Total Time | 30-45 minutes |
Level of Difficulty | Medium |
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup einkorn flour
- 6 eggs
- 1 container cottage cheese
- Coconut oil
- Vanilla
Step 1: Gather Ingredients
Gather all the necessary ingredients: 2/3 cup of einkorn flour, 6 eggs, 1 container of cottage cheese, coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
Make sure everything is ready before you start.
Step 2: Prepare the Eggs
Begin by separating the egg whites from the egg yolks.
Use the eggshell half to help catch any small fragments of shell that may fall in.
Set the egg whites and yolks in separate bowls.
Step 3: Whip the Egg Whites
Using a mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites until they become fluffy and form stiff peaks, resembling whipped cream.
This will add lightness to your pancake batter.
Step 4: Combine the Egg Yolk Mixture
In a separate bowl, combine the egg yolks, cottage cheese, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
Mix these ingredients well until they are fully blended.
Step 5: Fold in the Egg Whites
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the egg yolk mixture.
Be careful not to overmix, as you want to maintain the airiness from the whipped whites.
The batter should be light and fluffy.
Step 6: Cook the Pancakes
Preheat a cast iron skillet over medium heat for even cooking.
Once hot, lightly grease the skillet with coconut oil spray or butter to prevent sticking.
Use a 1/3 cup measuring cup to pour the batter into the skillet, forming mini pancakes.
Step 7: Flip and Finish Cooking
Cook the pancakes for about 3 minutes on one side until bubbles form on the surface.
Carefully flip them over and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
Step 8: Serve and Enjoy
Once cooked, remove the pancakes from the skillet and serve them warm.
Enjoy your delicious and fluffy mini pancakes!
