Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Cottage Cheese
- 4 Eggs
- 1/2 cup Coconut Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil
Instructions
- Blend Cottage Cheese and Eggs: Pour 1 cup of cottage cheese and 4 eggs into a blender. Blend together until the mixture is smooth and thoroughly combined.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: Transfer the blended mixture into a mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup of coconut flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir the batter well until evenly mixed, then let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
- Prepare the Pan: Place 2 tablespoons of coconut oil in a frying pan and heat it over low heat until the oil is melted and the pan is warm.
- Cook the Pancakes: Scoop 1/4 cup portions of the batter onto the pan. Cook the pancakes for about 3 minutes on one side until bubbles form and the edges set, then flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove the cooked pancakes from the pan and serve warm with fresh berries or your favorite sugar-free syrup for a tasty and healthy breakfast treat.
Notes
- The batter thickens as it rests; do not add extra liquid. Coconut flour absorbs moisture.
- Use low heat when cooking to avoid burning the pancakes before they are cooked through.
- Can be made dairy-free by substituting the cottage cheese with a plant-based alternative.
- Leftover pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in a skillet or microwave.
