Ingredients

½ cup - quick cook oats
½ cup - cottage cheese
2 - eggs
2 teaspoons - baking powder
½ tsp - vanilla
butter or oil

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.
