by

These flourless cottage cheese pancakes are light, protein-packed, and perfect for a wholesome breakfast or snack. With just a few simple ingredients and no flour, they deliver a fluffy texture and a deliciously mild, cheesy flavor. Whether you’re watching carbs or just love cottage cheese, these pancakes are a tasty, guilt-free treat.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cottage cheese (preferably full-fat)

  • 3 large eggs

  • 2 tablespoons rolled oats (optional for texture)

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for sweet version)

  • Butter or oil, for cooking

  • Instructions:

    1. Blend the batter
      In a blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese, eggs, oats (if using), baking powder, salt, and vanilla (if making sweet). Blend until smooth.

    2. Heat your pan
      Lightly grease a non-stick skillet with butter or oil and heat over medium-low.

    3. Cook the pancakes
      Pour 2–3 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form and edges set. Flip gently and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden.

    4. Serve warm
      Serve with fresh fruit, honey, yogurt, or keep it savory with herbs and a dollop of sour cream.

      Tips:

      • Make them savory by skipping the vanilla and adding chopped herbs or a sprinkle of cheddar.

      • For a smoother texture, strain the cottage cheese before blending.

      • Use nonstick pans for best flipping results.

      • Enjoy these simple and satisfying pancakes warm from the skillet — no flour needed, just wholesome, cheesy goodness!
