Ingredients
Dry Ingredients

Wet Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, and vanilla extract first, stirring gently to blend. Add the sugar, then the baking powder, and finally the flour, mixing thoroughly after each addition until you get a smooth batter.
- Preheat Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium heat and pour in the canola oil to coat the surface, preparing it for frying the pancakes.
- Fry Pancakes: Spoon portions of the batter onto the hot skillet. Fry the pancakes on each side until they turn a golden brown color, ensuring the cheese melts inside and the pancakes are cooked through.
- Serve: Serve the hot pancakes immediately with maple syrup or jam for added sweetness and flavor.
Notes
- You can substitute all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier version.
- Adjust sugar quantity according to your taste preference or dietary needs.
- Make sure the skillet is not too hot to prevent burning before the pancakes are cooked inside.
- These pancakes are best served fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated gently on a skillet.
