Cottage Cheese Pancakes - protein-packed hit in my house!
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup cottage cheese
2 large eggs
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
1-2 Tbsp almond milk
- Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a medium mixing bowl.
- Add cottage cheese, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla and almond milk to a blender or food processor and blend until combined and smooth.
- Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
- Heat pan or griddle to low-medium heat and spray with non-stick spray. Once hot, scoop out about a quarter cup of batter at a time and pour onto pan. You may have to use a spoon to spread the batter into a circle shape if your batter is pretty thick. You should be able to make 8 pancakes. Cook until little bubbles form and the edges of the pancakes are solid enough to put a spatula underneath, about 4-5 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for 2-3 additional minutes.
- For serving, top with a drizzle of maple syrup and serve with fresh berries or toppings of choice.
