Ingredients
  

Pancakes
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter for cooking
Toppings (Optional)
  • fresh berries
  • maple syrup
  • powdered sugar

Equipment

  • large bowl
  • whisk
  • griddle or non-stick pan
  • measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese and eggs until well combined and smooth.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and baking powder, then gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  3. Stir in the vanilla extract and milk until the batter is smooth with a few lumps.
Cooking
  1. Melt butter on a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat, then pour ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.
  2. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through, flipping once.
  3. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter if necessary.
Serving
  1. Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings like fresh berries, maple syrup, or powdered sugar.

Notes

For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. You can substitute whole wheat flour for all-purpose flour for a healthier option. Adjust sugar to taste or omit entirely if using sweet toppings.
