Preparation

  • Blend the cottage cheese, eggs, rolled oats, baking powder, salt, vanilla extract, and honey (if using) in a blender or food processor until the mixture is smooth.

Cooking

  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
  • Pour small portions of the pancake batter onto the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Serving

  • Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, syrup, or a drizzle of honey.
