Ingredients
- 0.33 cup cottage cheese
- 1 large egg
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon unsalted butter (or oil)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, egg, sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.
Step 2
Add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the butter (or oil) to coat the surface.
Step 4
Scoop about 2-3 tablespoons of batter onto the heated skillet for each pancake. Use a spatula to gently spread the batter into a round shape if needed.
Step 5
Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 6
Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as necessary.
Step 7
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, maple syrup, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
