Cottage Cheese Protein Pancakes Recipe
A rich, sweet breakfast or dessert that's loaded with satisfying protein thanks to cottage cheese
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup oats
- 1 whole medium banana, ripe
- 2/3 cup cottage cheese (use the full-fat variety, you can thank us later)
- 1 whole egg
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 splash water or milk of your choice (we love coconut milk here for a bit of sweetness and the texture, but water is fine too)
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Add the oats to your blender and process until they form a fine flour.
- Add the banana, cottage cheese, egg, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and a splash of water or milk to the blender. Blend until smooth. The batter should be thick but pourable; add more liquid if needed.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a little butter or oil. Pour a couple of tablespoons of batter per pancake into the pan.
- Cook for a few minutes on each side, flipping when golden brown.
- Serve topped with fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, drizzles of honey or real maple syrup. It's up to you!
