Ingredients
Scale
Cottage Cheese Pancakes
- 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
- 4 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 cup canola oil (for frying)
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: Combine all ingredients in the following order: start with the cottage cheese, then add the eggs, vanilla extract, sugar, baking powder, and finally the flour. Mix well after adding each ingredient to ensure an even batter.
- Preheat Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the canola oil, allowing it to warm up for frying the pancakes evenly.
- Fry Pancakes: Pour spoonfuls of the batter into the hot skillet. Fry each pancake on one side until golden brown, then carefully flip and fry the other side until equally golden and cooked through.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes hot, topped with maple syrup or jam for added sweetness. The cheese inside will be melted, giving a deliciously creamy texture.
Notes
- Make sure the skillet is at medium heat to prevent burning while ensuring the pancakes cook through.
- You can substitute canola oil with any neutral oil like vegetable or sunflower oil.
- For a lighter option, use low-fat cottage cheese.
- These pancakes pair wonderfully with fresh fruit or a dollop of yogurt.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy.
