Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams cottage cheese
- 100 grams rolled oats
- 30 grams whey protein powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 large eggs
- 100 milliliters milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 100 grams shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
In a blender, add cottage cheese, rolled oats, whey protein powder, baking powder, eggs, milk, and salt.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and well combined. The batter should be thick but pourable.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and brush with a little olive oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
Sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese on top of each pancake before the batter sets.
Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles start to form on the surface of the pancake and the edges begin to dry.
Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm, garnished with additional cheese or your favorite toppings if desired.
