Ingredients
  

For the batter

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • a pinch salt
For cooking
  • Butter or oil Use for cooking in the skillet.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, oats, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth.
Cooking
  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil.
  2. Pour a ladleful of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
  3. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Serving

Notes

If you have leftovers, let the pancakes cool completely. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to a month, separating each pancake with parchment paper. You can add cinnamon or cocoa powder for extra flavor.
