Flourless Cottage Cheese Pancakes

Flourless Cottage Cheese Pancakes are light, fluffy, and packed with protein, making them a nutritious option for breakfast or brunch. With just a few ingredients and no flour, these pancakes are perfect for low-carb, gluten-free, or high-protein diets. Their mildly tangy flavor pairs beautifully with both sweet and savory toppings.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup cottage cheese
3 large eggs
3 tablespoons rolled oats
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

1️⃣ Place the cottage cheese, eggs, oats, baking powder, and salt into a blender or food processor. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

2️⃣ Preheat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.

3️⃣ Pour small rounds of batter onto the skillet, about 2 to 3 tablespoons per pancake. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface and the edges are set.

4️⃣ Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, until golden and cooked through.

5️⃣ Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.

Notes

For a thinner batter, let the mixture sit for a few minutes after blending. If you prefer a chunkier texture, skip the blender and mix everything by hand. These pancakes freeze well and reheat easily in a toaster or skillet. Serve with fresh fruit, yogurt, nut butter, or a drizzle of honey for a delicious and wholesome meal.
