Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; a few lumps are fine.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
- Serve warm with additional maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite pancake toppings.
Notes
Make sure to not overmix the batter for fluffier pancakes.
Adjust the cooking time based on your skillet’s heat to achieve the best results.
Serve immediately for best taste.
