Amazing! Cottage Cheese Protein Pancakes

Ingredients

2 Cups Cottage Cheese (4% Fat)
4 Eggs
1 Cup Oat Flour
2 TBS Coconut Sugar
1 TBS Baking Powder
1 tsp Vanilla
1 Pinch of Salt

Instructions

  • Mix together cottage cheese, eggs and oat flour until well combined
  • Add in baking powder, coconut sugar, vanilla and salt and mix
  • Choose a cottage cheese that has small curds. If they are medium to large, use an immersion blender, food processor or blender to lightly blend/pulse ingredients together until curds are smaller.
  • Let batter sit for 5 minutes. It will thicken and bubbles will appear.
  • Preheat a cast iron or non-stick skillet to medium.
  • Add a cooking oil like avocado oil or butter to pan. These pancakes taste best when they have crispy edges, so dont skip this!
  • Use a 1/4 measuring cup and scoop batter onto pan. Let cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  • **These pancakes take a little longer to cook than a normal flour based pancake! Be patient and cook them all the way through properly.
  • Serve will warm maple syrup, butter, fruit, yogurt, etc.
  • These freeze amazingly well so make multiple batches and use them to throw in lunches, or 10 sec in the microwave to reheat at breakfast! These are great sandwiched together with peanut butter and honey in a lunch box!
