Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, almond flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until you achieve a smooth, well-incorporated batter.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter to coat the surface.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake.
Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on one side, or until small bubbles start appearing on the surface and the edges look set.
Gently flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of low-carb toppings such as fresh berries, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or sugar-free syrup.
