Description

Cottage Cheese Banana Oatmeal Protein Pancakes are a quick and healthy breakfast option made with oats, bananas, and cottage cheese. Packed with protein, naturally sweetened, and easily customizable, they’re perfect for a nutritious start to your day.

 


Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cooking spray or butter (for greasing the pan)

Instructions

 

  1. Blend the Ingredients:
    • Combine oats, cottage cheese, mashed banana, eggs, vanilla, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Heat the Skillet:
    • Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Grease lightly with cooking spray or butter.
  3. Cook the Pancakes:
    • Pour small amounts of batter onto the skillet for pancakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles form and edges set. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden.
  4. Serve:
    • Serve warm with toppings like fresh fruit, honey, or maple syrup.

Notes

  • Substitute cottage cheese with Greek yogurt for a similar texture and protein boost.
  • Add a tablespoon of nut butter for extra richness.
