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. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. 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. Enjoy!
Notes
Make sure not to overmix the batter for fluffy pancakes.
