Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese (2% or 4% milk fat)
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • berries, applesauce, maple syrup, and/or jam to serve

Instructions

  • Add the cottage cheese, rolled oats, eggs, and cinnamon (if using), to a blender.
  • Blend on high until super smooth.
  • Warm a nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add half of the butter and let melt.
  • Add a small amount of the batter at a time, spreading thinly and cook for about 3 minutes per side. You want to see little bubbles and for the top to be mostly set before you flip each over to ensure they are cooked through.
  • Melt the remaining butter and repeat to cook the remaining batter. Serve warm with desired toppings.⠀⠀

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Warm briefly before serving.
  • Use ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese if desired.
  • Serve topped with applesauce, apple butter, jam, or maple syrup.
  • Make the pancakes small to medium in size so they're easy to flip over.
