Ingredients:

200g cottage cheese (~¾ cup, small curd or whipped)
-
2 large eggs
-
1 tbsp sugar or sweetener (optional)

1 tsp vanilla extract

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!
