Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

For Frying

  • 1/4 cup canola oil

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the cottage cheese first, then crack in the eggs, followed by vanilla extract, sugar, baking powder, and finally the flour. Mix well after adding each ingredient until you achieve a consistent batter.
  2. Preheat Skillet: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the canola oil. Allow the oil to warm up properly so the pancakes can fry evenly without sticking.
  3. Fry Pancakes: Spoon the batter into the hot skillet, forming pancakes of your desired size. Fry each side until they turn golden brown, ensuring the inside cheese melts properly.
  4. Serve: Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and serve immediately with maple syrup or jam for a delightful taste, enjoying them while warm and gooey inside.

Notes

  • Ensure the skillet is adequately heated before frying to prevent sticking.
  • You can adjust sugar quantity to taste or substitute with a sugar alternative.
  • The texture is best when served hot because the cheese inside remains melted.
  • Use fresh cottage cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • If batter feels too thick, a splash of milk can be added to loosen it slightly.
