Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Batter

In a bowl, mix:

• Cottage cheese
• Eggs
• Vanilla extract
• Honey or maple syrup (if using)

In a separate bowl, combine:

• Oats or oat flour
• Baking powder
• Salt

Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. The batter will be slightly lumpy due to the cottage cheese — that’s perfectly normal.

---

2. Cook the Pancakes

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.

Lightly grease with butter or coconut oil.

Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the pan.

Cook for 2–3 minutes, until bubbles form and the edges look set.

Flip carefully and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden and cooked through.

---

3. Serve

Stack pancakes on a plate and top with:

• Fresh berries
• Greek yogurt
• Nut butter
• Maple syrup drizzle

Serve immediately for a warm, protein-packed breakfast.

Tips for Perfect Pancakes

• Don’t cook on high heat — medium ensures even cooking.
• Flip gently — these are softer than traditional pancakes.
• If the batter feels too thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of milk.
• For crispier edges, cook slightly longer on the first side.
