Cook Time:15 minutes
Total Time:25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese full-fat or low-fat, your choice
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk any kind
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or neutral oil plus more for the pan
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbsp sugar optional, or to taste
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries if frozen, don’t thaw

Instructions

  • Whisk wet ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, vanilla, and melted butter until mostly smooth. It’s okay if the cottage cheese is a bit chunky. If you prefer a smooth consistency, you can blend the batter.
  • Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.
  • Combine: Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Do not overmix — a few lumps are fine. Fold in the blueberries.
  • Rest the batter (optional but helpful): Let the batter sit for 5–10 minutes to hydrate the flour and activate the leavening.
  • Cook: Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake. Cook 2-3 minutes per side, until golden and fluffy.
  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
