Ready in just 3 minutes, they’re light, fluffy, and packed with protein, making them a perfect start to your day. And the best part? They’re so easy to make, you’ll be whipping them up all the time!
Ingredients:
- 200 g of cottage cheese (low-fat works well for a lighter version)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp of sugar (optional, depending on your preference)
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract (or a sachet of vanilla sugar)
- A pinch of salt
- Oil or butter for cooking
Instructions:
1. Mix the Ingredients
- In a large bowl, crack the eggs and lightly beat them.
- Add the cottage cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Stir everything together until the batter becomes smooth and slightly thicker than traditional pancake batter.
2. Cook the Pancakes
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of oil or butter to coat the surface.
- Pour a small ladle of batter into the hot pan and gently spread it to form a thick pancake.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through.
3. Serve and Enjoy
- Serve the pancakes warm, either plain or with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, maple syrup, honey, or jam.
- For an extra touch of indulgence, add a dollop of yogurt or whipped cream!
Pro Tips:
- Flavor Variations: Add small pieces of fresh fruit, like berries or bananas, directly into the batter before cooking for added flavor.
- Savory Option: If you’re craving a savory version, skip the sugar and vanilla. Instead, add a pinch of pepper and fresh herbs like parsley or chives for a delicious twist!
Pro Tip:
Make these pancakes twice a week, and you’ll always have a quick and healthy breakfast option ready to go. They’re great for meal prep and perfect for busy mornings!
