Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder.

- Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just blended with a few lumps remaining.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it.
- Scoop 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles appear and edges set.

For fluffier pancakes, ensure not to overmix the batter.
Keep the cooked pancakes warm in a low oven while you finish cooking the rest.
