These Cottage Cheese Pancakes are light, fluffy, and packed with protein! With a slightly tangy flavor and a creamy texture, they make a nutritious and delicious breakfast that pairs perfectly with fresh fruit, syrup, or honey.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup milk (or almond milk for dairy-free)
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour (or oat flour for a gluten-free option)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  • Blend the wet ingredients:

    • In a blender or mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, milk, honey (if using), and vanilla.
    • Blend until smooth (or leave slightly chunky for texture).

  • Mix the dry ingredients:

    • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  • Combine the batter:

    • Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined (don’t overmix).

  • Cook the pancakes:

    • Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
    • Pour ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet.
    • Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  • Serve & enjoy:

    • Stack the pancakes and top with fresh fruit, syrup, yogurt, or a drizzle of honey!

Notes

  • Extra Protein: Add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder and an extra splash of milk.
  • Gluten-Free: Use oat flour or almond flour instead of all-purpose.
  • Sweeter Pancakes: Mix in mashed banana or ¼ cup applesauce.
  • Make Ahead: Freeze cooked pancakes and reheat in a toaster for a quick breakfast!
