These cottage cheese pancakes are the perfect balance of creamy, slightly tangy, and wonderfully soft. Unlike traditional pancakes, they have a rich texture that pairs beautifully with fresh fruit, honey, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
Ingredients
-
1 cup cottage cheese
-
2 large eggs
-
½ cup all-purpose flour (or oat flour for a healthier option)
-
1 tbsp sugar (optional)
-
½ tsp baking powder
-
¼ tsp salt
-
½ tsp vanilla extract
-
2 tbsp milk (if needed, for consistency)
-
Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
-
Mix the ingredients – In a bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese and eggs until combined. Add flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and vanilla. Stir gently until a thick batter forms. If the batter is too thick, add a splash of milk.
-
Heat the pan – Warm a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
-
Cook the pancakes – Scoop small portions of batter (about 2 tbsp per pancake) onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to set. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brown.
-
Serve and enjoy – Stack the pancakes and top them with honey, maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
