Instructions

1. In a large bowl, stir together the cottage cheese, eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.

2. Gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix just until combined to avoid overmixing.

3. Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and coat with butter or oil.

4. Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles form and edges set.

5. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden and cooked through.

6. Serve warm with your favorite sweet or savory toppings.

Notes

These pancakes are best served fresh but reheat well.

You can blend the cottage cheese if you want a smoother texture.

Try these with fruit, honey, or even smoked salmon for a savory twist.
