Ingredients
  

Pancake Batter
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 0.5 cup flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.25 tsp salt

Equipment

  • large bowl
  • whisk
  • griddle or non-stick pan

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese and eggs until well combined and the cottage cheese lumps are mostly broken down.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt.
  3. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined; be careful not to overmix, as some lumps are fine.
Cooking
  1. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat.
  2. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot griddle.
  3. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serving
  1. Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.

Notes

For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. Adjust sugar to your preference and consider adding lemon zest for a brighter flavor.
