Cottage Cheese Pancakes

These cottage cheese pancakes combine the traditional fluffiness of pancakes with the creamy texture and protein-rich benefits of cottage cheese. They're lightly sweetened and have a subtle vanilla flavor, making them a delightful breakfast option. Perfectly balanced, they are both nutritious and satisfying, catering to those looking for a wholesome start to their day.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cottage cheese
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup milk
• Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, mix together the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter or oil.
5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
6. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
7. Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
