Begin by adding the rolled oats to a blender or food processor. Blend until they become a fine flour.
Add the cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, vanilla extract, salt, and milk to the blender.
Blend all the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes to allow the oats to soften and the baking powder to activate.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each hotcake.
Cook the hotcakes for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the hotcakes from the skillet and keep them warm. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil as needed.
Serve the hotcakes warm with fresh fruits or syrup as desired.
