Ingredients  

pancakes

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup low fat or regular cottage cheese (I used good culture)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or any other milk of choice)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups oat flour (may sub a gluten free 1:1 flour blend or all purpose flour)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

toppings

  • blueberries
  • yogurt
  • maple syrup

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, add in eggs and whisk well.
  • Then, add in cottage cheese, maple syrup, vanilla extract and almond milk.
  • Next, add in oat flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Fold until a thick batter is formed. 
  • Preheat a skillet and grease with non-stick spray or butter.
  • Then, add 1/4 cup of batter to the greased pan and cook until bubbles form on the outer edges, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Serve with yogurt, blueberries and maple syrup.

Notes

  • Blend for smoothness: If you prefer a silky batter, blend the cottage cheese with the wet ingredients before mixing. This removes any curds and makes the pancakes extra fluffy.
  • Don’t overmix: Once you add the dry ingredients, gently fold until just combined to keep the pancakes light.
  • Cook low and slow: Use medium-low heat so the inside cooks through without burning the outside.
  • Use the right pan: A nonstick skillet or well-seasoned griddle works best for even cooking and easy flipping.
  • Get creative with toppings: Maple syrup and fruit are classics, but try spreading with chia jam, whipped honey, or even a spoonful of yogurt.
