Description
Light, fluffy pancakes packed with protein, made quick and easy with a blender.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Salt to taste
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- Add cottage cheese, rolled oats, eggs, baking powder, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to a blender.
- Blend until mostly smooth and pourable. If thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk or water.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with butter or oil.
- Pour about 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet.
- Cook until bubbles appear and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Transfer to a plate and keep warm while cooking the remaining batter.
- Serve immediately with desired toppings.
Notes
For sweeter pancakes, add 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup or honey to the batter. Resting the batter for 5-10 minutes helps to hydrate the oats.
