Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 cup flour

For Frying

  • 1/4 cup canola oil


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, add the cottage cheese first, then beat in the eggs followed by vanilla extract. Mix in the sugar, baking powder, and finally the flour, stirring well after each addition until you get a smooth batter.
  2. Preheat Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the canola oil to coat the surface evenly.
  3. Cook Pancakes: Using a large cookie scoop (about 3 tablespoons), pour batter onto the skillet and cook each pancake until golden brown on one side, then flip and cook the other side until golden and the cheese inside is melted.
  4. Serve: Serve the pancakes hot with maple syrup or your choice of jam for a delicious breakfast treat.
