Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Gather all the ingredients listed above.
- Measure out the cottage cheese, whole-grain wheat flour, vegetable oil, and baking powder.
- Crack the eggs into a small bowl and beat them slightly to ensure they mix well.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, beaten eggs, and vegetable oil. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the whole-grain wheat flour and baking powder. This ensures the baking powder is evenly distributed within the flour.
- Gradually add the flour mixture into the bowl with the wet ingredients. Stir until combined, but avoid over-mixing. It's okay if the batter has a few small lumps of cottage cheese.
- Heat a non-stick griddle or large frying pan over medium heat. If using a regular pan, lightly grease it with a bit of vegetable oil.
- Once the griddle or pan is hot, scoop about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the cooking surface. Use the back of the scoop or spoon to spread the batter slightly if needed.
- Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
- Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm. Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter.
- Serve the pancakes hot with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, yogurt, or a sprinkling of powdered sugar.
Tips:
- Ensure the cottage cheese is well-drained to avoid excess moisture in the batter.
- Beat the eggs thoroughly to incorporate air, helping the pancakes become fluffier.
- Preheat the cooking surface (skillet or griddle) to medium heat for even cooking.
- Use a non-stick skillet or griddle, or lightly grease the cooking surface with additional vegetable oil or butter.
- Pour the batter in small portions to make it easier to flip the pancakes.
- Cook the pancakes until bubbles form on the surface before flipping them to ensure they are fully cooked through.
- Keep the pancakes warm in an oven set to low heat if cooking in batches.
These fluffy whole-grain cottage cheese pancakes are a fantastic way to enjoy a nutritious and filling breakfast. With their delightful texture and rich flavor, they are perfect for starting your day with a smile. Pair them with fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or your favorite syrup for an extra touch of sweetness. Enjoy the blend of wholesome ingredients and savor each bite!
