How to Make Cottage Cheese Pancakes

  1. In a blender, combine 1 cup cottage cheese, 1 large egg, 1/4 cup milk (any kind), 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  2. Blend until the batter is completely smooth. If it's too thick, add a tablespoon more milk at a time until you reach desired consistency.
  3. Lightly grease a cast iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat.
  4. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot pan for each pancake.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings! We recommend maple syrup, fresh berries, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
