Cottage Cheese Pancakes

Yum

January 15, 2020 by Jodi + 5 Comments

These Cottage Cheese Pancakes are packed with protein, gluten free and are incredibly delicious! With only five simple ingredients, and made in a blender, you can whip up a batch in no time at all.

this …

I made these several months ago when I had a bunch of cottage cheese I needed to use up. They were good, but I knew I could make them better, so I did.

My boys love when I make these. In fact, most of the time when I make pancakes, my boys now request these instead of good old fashioned pancakes or buttermilk pancakes.

Not only are these incredibly delicious, they are a cinch to make. Everything is thrown into your blender and it does all the work. The hardest part might be flipping these pancakes over . . .and trust me, that’s not even hard.

We love these with my buttermilk syrup, raspberry jam, or maple syrup. Fresh fruit is also delicious on them and so is peanut butter.

HOW TO MAKE COTTAGE CHEESE PANCAKES:

  1.  Add eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, vanilla, rolled oats, and baking powder into a blender. Blend until mixture is well combined and smooth.
  2. Heat a skillet or griddle to medium heat.  Once completely heated, put a little butter onto your griddle or skillet.  Pour enough batter to make desired size.  Cook until edges begin to turn golden brown and bubbles appear on top of the pancake. Gentle flip and cook the other side.
  3. Top with butter, and toppings of your choice.

Who knew that five simple ingredients could make up the most delicious protein-packed pancakes ever?

Nights when I don’t have a clue what I’m making for dinner, these are so often my go-to dinner along with some fresh fruit and a fried egg. Seriously delicious!
