Ingredients

• 1 cup cottage cheese
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or neutral oil (for frying)
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for serving, optional)
• 2 tablespoons honey or jam (for serving, optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese and eggs until well combined.

Step 2

Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to the bowl. Stir with a spatula or spoon until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing the batter.

Step 3

Mix in the vanilla extract to add a touch of flavor. The batter should be thick but spoonable.

Step 4

Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter or oil and allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly.

Step 5

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake and gently drop it onto the skillet, forming small rounds. Flatten lightly with the back of the spoon if necessary.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and puffed. Flip gently using a spatula.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Once all pancakes are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate. Optionally dust with powdered sugar and serve with honey or jam for a sweet finishing touch.

Step 9

Enjoy your warm, fluffy Cottage Cheese Pancakes (Levivot) immediately!
