Primary Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: Combine the cottage cheese, eggs, rolled oats, and baking powder in a blender or food processor. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated, forming a thick batter.
- Heat the Skillet: Preheat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of oil or butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Pancakes: Pour small portions of the batter onto the hot skillet to form pancakes. Cook each side for 2-3 minutes or until the edges are set and the bottom is golden brown. Flip carefully and cook the other side until cooked through and golden.
- Serve Warm: Remove the pancakes from the skillet and serve immediately while warm. Optionally, top with fresh fruit, honey, or yogurt for extra flavor.
Notes
- Ensure the batter is not too runny for best pancake shape and texture.
- Use rolled oats for better consistency; quick oats can be used but may result in a less firm texture.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute cottage cheese with a plant-based alternative, though texture and taste will vary.
- These pancakes freeze well; reheat in a toaster or skillet before serving.
