Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a blender, combine cottage cheese, eggs, rolled oats, cinnamon, baking powder, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and nutmeg.
  2. Blend until smooth, ensuring no large oat particles remain.
  3. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow oats to absorb the liquid.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-low heat. Maintaining a lower temperature helps to cook the pancakes evenly and prevent burning.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip carefully to avoid breaking the pancakes.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings. Consider fresh berries, a drizzle of maple syrup (in moderation due to sodium content), or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added protein and flavor.
