Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 large eggs
- 1 medium apple, grated
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or honey)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Start by tossing all your ingredients into a blender or food processor. You want everything mixed up and smooth, so don’t hold back!
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is well combined and silky. You’ll love how creamy it looks!
- Let it Sit: Allow the batter to sit for about 5 minutes. This gives it time to thicken and become perfect for cooking.
- Preheat Your Skillet: Heat a greased skillet over medium heat. It should be hot enough that a drop of water sizzles when it hits the pan.
- Pour the Batter: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the hot skillet. The batter is thick, so don’t be alarmed!
- Cook Until Golden Brown: Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes per side, flipping them once they are golden brown and full of little bubbles.
- Serve Warm: Serve these delicious pancakes warm, and let everyone add their favorite toppings!
Notes
Ensure your cottage cheese is well-blended. Adjust the consistency with a splash of milk if the batter feels too thick.
