Cottage Cheese Pancakes

Cottage cheese pancakes only contain 3 simple ingredients: cottage cheese, eggs, and flour. If you're looking for a specific type of flour to use feel free to sub it out for all-purpose flour.

These pancakes are not your typical pancake made with flour, buttermilk, and eggs. The cottage cheese gets processed in a food processor until it's smooth and it almost resembles buttermilk. A blender will work as well if you don't have a food processor. They are low carb and keto-friendly if a specific type of flour is used. PLEASE BE PATIENT WITH THESE PANCAKES. They can take a while to cook on each side and might not look like they are done. Use a medium high heat and spray the pan each time.

Find a good sugar-free maple syrup to top the pancakes off with. Lankato Sugar-Free maple syrup is a good brand or so is Maple Groves Farm Sugar Free syrup which can be found at Target or Wal-Mart.

What Ingredients do I need for Cottage Cheese Pancakes?

Cottage Cheese  - Any brand of cottage cheese is fine. If you’re from the Midwest I like Cass Clay. Daisy is also great.

Eggs   - always use large eggs, warm temperature eggs are better for blending and baking

Flour  - The original recipe calls for purpose flour. Please feel free to use a specific flour for certain diets and figure out the conversions on your own.

How to make Cottage Cheese Pancakes  

In a food processor pulse the cottage cheese until smooth. Add in the egg one at a time and then the flour until everything is well combined.

Heat a non stick skillet and spray with cooking spray. Cook each pancake on one side until you see those little bubbles and then flip. They take about 2 minues per side.

    Can you make them with a gluten - free flour like coconut flour or almond flour?

    I would imagine you could sub coconut flour or almond flour for wheat flour, correct?

    Excellent recipe. For easier flipping, I waited for one side to cook 2 min, 30 seconds. Attempting to flip the pancake any sooner, resulted in a wrinkled pancake. I also added a cup of blueberries to the mix.
