Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Low Fat Cottage Cheese 245g
  • 1 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats 125g
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Pure Maple Syrup
  • 2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder

Instructions

  • Combine the cottage cheese, oats, eggs, maple syrup and vanilla in a high-powered blender. Cover the blender and blend these ingredients on high for about 30 seconds or until there are no chunks of cottage cheese or oats. If using a Vitamix, start low and slowly increase to full speed. Scrape the sides of the blender with a rubber spatula, if needed.

  • Once the batter is a smooth, even consistency, add the baking powder and blend again for several seconds or until the baking powder is fully incorporated. Avoid overmixing.

  • Allow the batter to rest for at least 5 minutes before pouring. While batter is resting, heat a lightly oiled medium-sized nonstick skillet over medium heat.

  • Pour 1/3 cup of batter (or ¼ cup for smaller pancakes) on the lightly oiled and preheated skillet. Once air bubbles form and pop on the surface of the pancake and the edges become slightly firm, flip the pancake and allow it to cook on the other side.

  • Once the pancake is golden brown on both sides, remove from the skillet and set aside. Repeat for the remainder of the batter. Reduce the heat as the pancakes cook, and the pan gets hotter to prevent the pancakes from burning.
