Fluffy Cottage Cheese Pancakes

• servings: 1 serving
• total time: 3 minutes

Ingredients

1 serving (33g of protein)

1 ripe banana (the riper, the better)

½ cup cottage cheese

2 eggs

½ cup oat flour (or blitz rolled oats in a blender)

½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp vanilla extract

A pinch of cinnamon (if you like warmth)

Pinch of salt

coconut oil, for frying

To top it off (optional but highly encouraged):

Sliced banana

Honey or maple syrup

Greek yogurt

Fresh berries

Directions

Mash your banana in a bowl until creamy. Stir in the cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla, and cinnamon. Add the oat flour, baking powder, and salt. The batter should be thick but spoonable.

Preheat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Add a little coconut oil, then spoon in the batter (about ¼ cup per pancake). Cook gently for 2–3 minutes until you see bubbles. Flip and cook another minute or two until golden and fluffy.

Layer your pancakes with whatever makes you happy - banana slices, a drizzle of honey, a dollop of yogurt, some berries, a handful of nuts… or all of the above.

Enjoy!
