Cottage Cheese Pancakes

cook:

10 min

There are a lot of cottage cheese pancake recipes out there, but this one is unique for so many reasons. 1. It is refined sugar free and is instead made and topped with raw honey for added nutrients. 2. They have tons of protein to sustain you through your morning. 3. Which is my favorite, you can eyeball measure these and they still work. plus they're made with einkorn which has 29% more protein than conventional flour, is more easily digestible, and is packed with nutrients. They're my perfect cottage cheese pancake.

Ingredients

1/2 cup whole milk cottage cheese
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp honey, plus more for drizzle (maple syrup works too!)
3/4 cup AP or whole wheat einkorn (you can sub regular flour, but you'll lose out on some protein and nutrients)
pinch of salt
Flaky salt for topping
2 tbsp for cooking
Berries for topping

Directions

1.
Whisk together wet ingredients.
1/2 cup whole milk cottage cheese
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp honey, plus more for drizzle (maple syrup works too!)
2.
Add flour and salt and whisk once again to combine.
3/4 cup AP or whole wheat einkorn (you can sub regular flour, but you'll lose out on some protein and nutrients)
pinch of salt
3.
Heat 1 tbsp (per batch) of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once melted add in pancake batter by the 1/4 cup. I like my pancakes to get a little dark and crispy, so I just pay attention to what the edges of the pancake looks like. This usually takes 3ish minutes on my stove. You can always use a spatula to gently lift the pancake to test for your desired doneness. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
2 tbsp for cooking
4.
I like to add berries in between each layer of pancake AND on top. I top the whole stack with more honey, flaky salt, and that's it!
Berries for topping
Flaky salt for topping
1 tbsp honey, plus more for drizzle (maple syrup works too!)
5.
ENJOY!
