Instructions

Combine the oats, cottage cheese, eggs, baking powder and vanilla in a high powered, smoothie style blender. Puree until smooth, adding a splash of water or milk as needed.

Set the batter aside to thicken slightly as you melt 1 teaspoon of butter or heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Once the butter or oil is hot, portion out the pancake batter in ¼ cup increments.

Cook for 3 minutes per side, until lightly golden and the pancake releases easily from the pan. Continue to cook on the opposite side for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Repeat with all pancake batter, adding more butter or oil to the frying pan, as needed.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Drain Cottage Cheese Thoroughly 🧅
Strain your cottage cheese through a fine mesh sieve for 5 minutes before blending to remove excess liquid, ensuring fluffy pancakes instead of dense, soggy ones.
Blend Until Completely Smooth 🥣
Use a blender or food processor to puree all ingredients until silky smooth, which creates the signature light and airy texture these pancakes are known for.
Let Batter Rest Before Cooking ⏱️
Allow the batter to sit for 2-3 minutes after mixing so the oats can fully hydrate and the baking powder can activate, resulting in superior fluffiness and rise.
Use Medium-Low Heat for Even Cooking 🔥
Cook on medium-low rather than high heat to prevent the outside from browning too quickly while the inside remains undercooked, ensuring perfectly golden pancakes throughout.
Don't Flip Too Early 🥞
Wait until you see bubbles form across the top surface and the edges look set before flipping—this prevents deflating the pancakes and maintains their protein-rich structure.
