How to Make Our Blueberry Cottage Cheese Pancake Bites
- Blend the wet mixture. Add cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla, sweetener, cinnamon, and salt to a blender. Blend until silky and smooth.
- Add dry ingredients. Add oats (or almond/coconut flour) plus baking powder. Pulse until combined. Let the batter rest 3–4 minutes to thicken.
- Fold in blueberries. Gently fold in most of the blueberries, reserving a few to top each bite.
- Prepare the pan. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin pan.
- Fill & top. Spoon batter into each cavity about ¾ full. Press one blueberry on top for extra burst.
- Bake. Bake 12–15 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden and set.
- Cool & enjoy. Let cool a few minutes before removing. Perfect warm, cold, or meal-prepped for the week.

Do frozen blueberries work?
