Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 1 cup (225g) cottage cheese

  • 1 cup (80g) rolled oats

  • 5 eggs

  • 2 tsp. cinnamon

  • 1 tbsp. maple syrup

  • 2 tbsp. coconut oil, divided

Directions

  1. Blend the batter:
    Add cottage cheese, oats, eggs, cinnamon, and maple syrup to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.

  2. Cook the pancakes:
    Heat ¼ of the coconut oil in a large frying pan over low-medium heat. Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake into the pan.

  3. Flip when bubbly:
    Cook until small bubbles form on top (about 1–2 minutes), then flip and cook another minute until golden brown.

  4. Repeat:
    Continue cooking in batches, adding more coconut oil as needed until all the batter is used.

  5. Serve & enjoy:
    Top with your favorite toppings—think fresh berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, or nut butter for an extra protein boost.
