Ingredients
Scale
Keto Cottage Cheese Pancakes
- ½ cup cottage cheese (full-fat for best results)
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup almond flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for sweetness)
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon (optional for extra flavor)
- 1 tablespoon butter or coconut oil (for cooking)
Optional Toppings:
- Sugar-free syrup
- Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- Whipped cream
- Almond butter or peanut butter
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together cottage cheese, eggs, almond flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth.
- For an extra fluffy texture, blend the batter in a blender until smooth.
Step 2: Cook the Pancakes
- Heat butter or coconut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour small amounts of batter (about 2 tablespoons per pancake) into the skillet.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles start to form on the surface. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.
Step 3: Serve & Enjoy!
- Stack the pancakes on a plate and top with sugar-free syrup, berries, or whipped cream.
- Serve warm and enjoy your keto-friendly breakfast!
Notes
- Use Full-Fat Cottage Cheese – For a richer, creamier pancake.
- Blend for a Smoother Texture – If you prefer lump-free pancakes, blend the batter.
- Keep the Heat Low – Almond flour burns quickly, so cook on medium-low heat.
- Make Them Ahead – Store leftovers in the fridge or freeze for a quick breakfast.
