Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats Use gluten-free oats if necessary.
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Can substitute with whole wheat flour for added fiber.
  • 1 tbsp baking powder Ensure it's fresh for proper leavening.
  • 1/2 tsp salt Enhances flavor.

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese Use low-fat or full-fat based on preference.
  • 1 cup milk Dairy or non-dairy milk can be used.
  • 2 large eggs Room temperature for better mixing.
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup Adjust sweetness to taste.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract Adds flavor.

For Cooking

  • 1 tbsp butter or oil For greasing the skillet.

Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well mixed.
  • In another bowl, combine the cottage cheese, milk, eggs, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay.

Cook the Pancakes

  • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add butter or oil to coat the surface.
  • Once the skillet is hot, use a ladle or measuring cup to pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet.
  • Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.

Serve

  • Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, yogurt, or additional syrup.

Notes

These pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat in a toaster or microwave before serving.
