Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (120g) All-Purpose Flour (plain flour), plus more if needed
  • 1 teaspoon (5g) Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon (3g) Baking Soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1g) Salt
  • 2 Tablespoon (25g) Sugar, or sweetener of choice
  • 1 cup (225g) Full-Fat Cottage Cheese
  • 1 cup (240ml) Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon (5ml) Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) melted unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Make sure it is all combined with no lumps.
  2. In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Don't overmix! It is ok if it is a little bit lumpy.
  4. Fold in the melted butter.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick frying pan over medium heat. A small drop of water should sizzle and evaporate quickly.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  7. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to form on the surface.
  8. Serve warm with your favorite toppings. Enjoy your cottage cheese protein pancakes!
