Ingredients

• 1 cup Dairy-free cottage cheese
• 0.5 cup Almond milk (unsweetened)
• 3 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil or cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dairy-free cottage cheese, almond milk, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the baking powder.

Step 3

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to over mix to maintain the fluffiness of the pancakes.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with coconut oil or cooking spray.

Step 5

Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Spread slightly with the back of a spoon if needed.

Step 6

Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, additional maple syrup, or nut butter.
