Ingredients
Scale
- 200 g cottage cheese (low-fat works well for a lighter version)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional, depending on your preference)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (or a sachet of vanilla sugar)
- A pinch of salt
- Oil or butter for cooking
Instructions
- In a large bowl, crack the eggs and lightly beat them.
- Add the cottage cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Stir everything together until the batter becomes smooth and slightly thicker than traditional pancake batter.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of oil or butter to coat the surface.
- Pour a small ladle of batter into the hot pan and gently spread it to form a thick pancake.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the pancakes warm, either plain or with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, maple syrup, honey, or jam.
Notes
- If you prefer sweeter pancakes, feel free to add a bit more sugar.
- These pancakes can be easily made ahead and reheated for a quick breakfast during busy mornings.
- Use a non-stick pan to ensure the pancakes don’t stick while cooking.
