Ingredients

• 1 cup Cottage cheese
• 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Butter (for greasing)
• 0 Optional toppings (e.g., fresh fruit, syrup, powdered sugar)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, and eggs until smooth.

Step 2

Add the vanilla extract and sugar to the wet ingredients and stir to combine.

Step 3

In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 4

Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing; a few small lumps are okay.

Step 5

Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease it with a small amount of butter.

Step 6

Scoop about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake.

Step 7

Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look slightly set. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
