Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cottage cheese
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter (for cooking)
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- Maple syrup or powdered sugar (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just incorporated. Do not overmix; the batter will be slightly lumpy because of the cottage cheese.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter to coat the surface.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread gently with the back of a spoon if needed to get an even thickness.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip carefully and cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup, powdered sugar, or your favorite fresh fruits on top. Enjoy!
