Oat and cottage cheese pancakes

Oat and cottage cheese pancakes are a nutritious and delicious breakfast option. Combining the hearty texture of multi-grain oatmeal with the creaminess of lowfat cottage cheese, these pancakes are rich in protein and fiber. A hint of vanilla extract adds a touch of sweetness, making them a perfect start to your day.

Ingredients:

4 eggs
200g
1/2 cup multi-grain oatmeal
40g
1 cup lowfat cottage cheese
230g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4.20g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Gather all ingredients: eggs, multi-grain oatmeal, low-fat cottage cheese, and vanilla extract.
2. Blend the Batter:
- In a blender or food processor, combine the eggs, oatmeal, cottage cheese, and vanilla extract.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined. The batter should have a thick, pourable consistency.
3. Preheat the Pan:
- Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a bit of cooking spray or a small amount of oil/butter if necessary.
4. Cook the Pancakes:
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the preheated skillet for each pancake.
- Spread out the batter slightly with the back of a spoon, if needed, to form even circles.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to set and bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes.
5. Flip and Continue Cooking:
- Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
6. Serve:
- Once all pancakes are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate.
- Enjoy your oat and cottage cheese pancakes warm with your favorite toppings. Some great options include fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt.
7. Storage:
- If you have any leftover pancakes, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or toaster when ready to eat.

Tips:

- Use a non-stick skillet: To prevent the pancakes from sticking, use a non-stick skillet and lightly coat it with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

- Blend the batter well: For a smoother texture, blend the oatmeal, cottage cheese, and eggs in a blender until the mixture is uniform. This helps to break down the oats and incorporate the cottage cheese smoothly.

- Let the batter rest: Let the batter sit for a few minutes before cooking. This allows the oats to absorb some of the moisture, resulting in fluffier pancakes.

- Cook on medium heat: Cook the pancakes on medium heat to ensure they cook evenly without burning. Flip them when bubbles start to form on the surface.

- Customize with add-ins: Feel free to add in extra ingredients like blueberries, chocolate chips, or chopped nuts for additional flavor and texture.

Enjoy your oat and cottage cheese pancakes with a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a handful of fresh berries. These pancakes are not only healthy but also incredibly satisfying, providing the energy you need to kickstart your day.
