Advertisement
Servings & Nutrition:
  • Yield: ~6 pancakes
  • Prep Time: 3 minutes
  • Cook Time: 10 minutes
  • Total Time: ~13 minutes
  • Protein (per 2 pancakes): ~18–20g
  • Carbs: ~4–5g
  • WW Points: ~2–3 per serving (depends on sugar used)
Ingredients:
  • 200g cottage cheese (~¾ cup, small curd or whipped)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp sugar or sweetener (optional)
Optional Flavors:
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg
  • Zest of lemon or orange
  • 1–2 tbsp protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
Optional Toppings & Fillings:
  • Greek yogurt, nut butter, sugar-free jam
  • Cream cheese + berries
  • Cocoa drizzle + crushed nuts
Instructions:
1. Blend the Batter
  • Add cottage cheese, eggs, and sugar to a blender or food processor.
  • Blend until completely smooth and pourable.
2. Heat the Pan
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
  • Lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.
3. Cook the Pancakes
  • Pour 2–3 tbsp batter per pancake into the pan.
  • Use the back of a spoon to spread into a thin circle.
  • Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, flipping gently once edges lift easily.
4. Fill or Stack & Serve
  • Roll with your favorite filling or stack and top with fruit, syrup, or cream.
Variations:
  • Savory Version: Skip sugar, add salt, herbs, and fill with smoked salmon or avocado.
  • Chocolate Pancakes: Add 1 tbsp cocoa powder + sugar-free chocolate chips.
  • Protein Boost: Add 1 scoop vanilla whey or plant protein to batter.
Tips:
  • Don’t skip blending — it smooths the curds for a crepe-like texture.
  • Use medium-low heat to prevent burning and allow gentle browning.
  • If the batter is too thick, thin it with 1–2 tbsp almond milk.
Storage:
  • Refrigerate for up to 3 days, stacked with parchment between.
  • Reheat in a nonstick skillet or microwave for 30 seconds.
  • Freezes well — roll with filling, freeze, and toast later!
