👩🍳 Step-By-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Blend the Batter
Add to blender:
• Cottage cheese
• Eggs
• Oats
Blend until smooth and creamy.
Texture should look like thick pancake batter.
If too thick → add 1–2 tbsp milk.
If too thin → add 1 tbsp oats.
2️⃣ Heat the Pan
Heat non-stick skillet over medium-low.
Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
Low heat is key so they cook through without burning.
3️⃣ Cook the Pancakes
Pour small circles (2–3 tbsp each).
Cook 2–3 minutes until:
✔ Bubbles form
✔ Edges set
Flip carefully.
Cook another 2 minutes until golden brown.
4️⃣ Serve
Stack and top with:
• Greek yogurt
• Fresh berries
• Sugar-free syrup
• Nut butter drizzle
• Cinnamon
