INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup lowfat cottage cheese
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose or whole wheat flour (about 2 1/2 ounces)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup oil (canola, vegetable or coconut oil)
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 tablespoons sugar
DIRECTIONS:
- Combine all the ingredients in a blender and process until smooth.
- Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until a drop of water sizzles on the surface. Lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Lift the skillet from the heat and ladle in about 1/4 cup batter, spinning the skillet in a circle to form a somewhat even circle about 6 or 8-inches across (it doesn’t have to be perfect).
- On the heat, cook the pancake until golden, about a minute, then use a wide, flat spatula to carefully flip the pancake and cook for 30 seconds or so on the other side.
- Slide the pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, spraying with cooking spray every few pancakes or so and making sure the skillet is hot before adding a new scoop of batter (although make sure it isn’t so hot that the pancakes burn – adjust the temperature as needed). Stack the pancakes on top of each other as they finish cooking.
- Serve with butter, jam, powdered sugar, syrup, fruit and whipped cream – whatever your little heart desires! Spread the filling down the center and roll up to eat.
NOTES:
These pancakes can be cooked, cooled, stacked and sealed in a ziploc bag and refrigerated for a few days (reheat in the microwave or quickly in a warm skillet). They can also be frozen for several months.
