Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Dairy-free cottage cheese
- 0.5 cup Almond milk (unsweetened)
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil or cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dairy-free cottage cheese, almond milk, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to over mix to maintain the fluffiness of the pancakes.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with coconut oil or cooking spray.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread slightly with the back of a spoon if needed.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, additional maple syrup, or nut butter.
