Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons milk (optional, for thinning batter)
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil
- maple syrup or toppings of choice (optional)
Instructions
Add the rolled oats, cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla extract, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt to a blender.
Blend the ingredients on high speed until a smooth batter forms. If the batter is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk to thin it, and blend again.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spacing them out evenly.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.
