👩🍳 How to Make Cottage Cheese Pancakes
Start by adding the cottage cheese to a blender.
Add the eggs and rolled oats right on top.
Blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. The batter should be thick but still pourable.
Add the baking powder and a pinch of salt. Pulse the blender briefly just to combine.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil or butter.
Pour small amounts of batter into the pan, keeping the pancakes small so they cook evenly.
Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip carefully and cook for another minute until golden and fluffy.
Remove from the pan and repeat until all the batter is used.
🍓 Serving Suggestions
Serve the pancakes warm with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, and a spoon of Greek yogurt for extra protein.
They’re also great with nut butter or enjoyed plain — they’re that good.
