Description
Soft, fluffy pancakes made with cottage cheese, providing a nutritious twist on traditional pancakes, perfect for breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Butter or oil for greasing the pan
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
- In a large bowl, mix together the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients gently to incorporate air and avoid lumps.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir everything together until just combined. A few lumps are okay; don’t over mix.
- Pour the pancake batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly to ensure even cooking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
- Allow the baked pancakes to cool slightly before slicing into squares. Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
For serving, top with maple syrup, fresh fruit, yogurt, or powdered sugar. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
