  • 1 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats Avoid steel cut oats for proper texture
  • 2 large Eggs Acts as a binder
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Adjust according to taste
  • ¾ cup Milk Substitute with non-dairy milk if preferred
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda Ensure it's fresh for best results
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract You can use maple extract for a twist
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt Balances the flavors
For Cooking

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Non-stick skillet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a blender, combine 1 cup of cottage cheese, 1 cup of old-fashioned rolled oats, 2 eggs, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, ¾ cup of milk, ½ teaspoon of baking soda, ½ teaspoon of baking powder, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Blend on high for 30-45 seconds until the mixture is smooth but avoid overblending to keep the batter fluffy.
  2. While the batter rests, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, lightly coat the skillet with non-stick spray or a small amount of butter.
  3. Pour ¼ cup of the pancake batter into the heated skillet for each pancake. Allow the pancakes to cook for 3-4 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
  4. Carefully flip each pancake using a spatula, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until they are golden brown.
  5. Continue with the remaining batter, adjusting heat if necessary to prevent burning. Serve warm with your choice of toppings.
