Flour-Free Cottage Cheese Pancakes

Pancakes are a timeless go-to—quick to prepare, endlessly adaptable, and always comforting. Still, classic flour-based versions can sometimes feel a little too filling. That’s why these flourless cottage cheese pancakes are such a win: lighter in texture, higher in protein, and every bit as tasty.

Ready in about five minutes, these pancakes cook up soft and fluffy with minimal effort. The batter comes together using just a few simple ingredients—cottage cheese, milk, egg, and vanilla pudding powder—yet delivers golden pancakes that feel both wholesome and indulgent. Customize them with sweet or savory fillings like jam, Nutella, chocolate, nuts, or even extra cottage cheese to suit your mood.

🥞 Flourless Cottage Cheese Pancakes

📝 Ingredients

Ingredient	Amount	Purpose
Milk	65 ml	Creates a smooth, creamy base
Vanilla pudding or butter powder	1½ tbsp	Adds flavor and replaces flour
Egg	1	Gives structure
Cottage cheese (white cheese)	1 tbsp	Adds softness and moisture

👩‍🍳 Instructions

Step 1: Make the Batter

Add the milk, pudding powder, egg, and cottage cheese to a medium bowl. Whisk or blend until completely smooth. The batter should be pourable but slightly thick. Adjust by adding a splash of milk if it’s too thick, or a little more pudding powder or cottage cheese if it’s too thin.

Step 2: Cook the Pancakes

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Pour small amounts of batter into the pan to form thin pancakes. Cook for 2–3 minutes, until bubbles appear and the edges loosen. Flip carefully and cook for another 1–2 minutes until lightly golden. Repeat with the remaining batter—these cook quickly, so keep an eye on them.

Step 3: Fill and Enjoy

Fill or top the pancakes with your favorites:

Fruit jams like strawberry, blueberry, or raspberry
Nutella for a rich, chocolatey option
Melted chocolate for a dessert-style treat
Extra cottage cheese for a savory, protein-rich bite
Poppy seeds for texture
Chopped nuts such as almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts

Roll them up or stack them, then finish with honey, maple syrup, or a light dusting of powdered sugar.
