Ingredients

Servings

For the blueberry compote

  • 1 ½ cups blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 2 tbsp sugar or Sukrin sweetener
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp water , or as needed

For the pancakes

  • 1 cup cottage cheese full fat or 2%
  • cup milk skim
  • 2 egg large
  • 2 tbsp sugar or Sukrin sweetener
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste , or extract
  • 2 cups flour all-purpose / plain
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda

To fry the pancakes

  • 3-4 tbsp clarified butter or unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

Make the compote (if using)

  1. Add all the ingredients into a saucepan. Bring to a simmer, stirring, until the blueberries start to burst (add a splash of water if the pan is getting dry at any point). Set aside.

Make the pancakes

  1. Add the cottage cheese, milk, eggs, sugar, maple syrup and vanilla to a blender or food processor and blend until completely smooth.
  2. Sift the flour, baking powder and baking soda into a mixing bowl. Add the blended cottage cheese mixture and melted butter. Stir to combine the wet and dry ingredients until you have a smooth batter. Rest for 10 minutes before using.
  3. Heat clarified butter over medium-high heat in a large non-stick pan or grill plate. Fry the pancakes, in batches, adding more butter as needed.
  4. The pancakes should be spaced apart for easy flipping – wait until small bubbles form on the surface then use a thin spatula to flip them over. Cook for a couple more minutes then transfer onto a plate or wire rack while you finish using up all of the batter.
  5. Serve with the blueberry compote or you favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Use a small cookie scoop, a quarter cup or two spoons to measure the batter when frying these babies up.
  • Keep an eye on how hot your pan gets as you fry your pancakes. The heat needs to be high enough for the pancakes to rise and get golden, but not so hot that they scorch (and remain uncooked in the middle). Adjust the heat as needed, especially after the first batch.
  • Make sure to grease the skillet with clarified butter as you cook the pancakes, adding a little every time you cook up a new batch.
  • You can also make these cottage cheese pancakes in an air fryer – simply follow the recipe method of my air fryer pancakes.
