Low Carb Cottage Cheese Pancakes Recipe<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n
This Low Carb Cottage Cheese Pancake recipe makes the lightest pancakes you\u2019ve ever had! Cottage Cheese Pancakes are more delicate than traditional pancakes and have a mild cheese flavor with a soft creamy texture and crisp edges.<\/p>\n
Cottage Cheese Pancakes are made with Dry Curd Cottage Cheese, eggs, a little bit of flour, and sweetened with any sweetener and your favorite dry fruits. These pancakes are nutritious, light, and filling thanks to cottage cheese \u2013 the main ingredient which has a high level of protein, calcium, B vitamins, phosphorus, and really low in carbs.<\/p>\n
These high-protein, low-carb, and low-fat Cottage Cheese Pancakes make healthy breakfast and they are actually amazing for a filling snack or dessert. They are such a treat with a cup of coffee or tea!<\/p>\n
Tips for Cottage Cheese Pancakes<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n
Use DRY Curd Cottage Cheese<\/u><\/strong> or farmer cheese<\/u><\/strong> (sometimes it\u2019s called Tvorog<\/strong>) \u2013 it\u2019s the most important for this recipe! If your cottage cheese is not quite dry, drain it in a colander under a light press (such as a canning can) for a couple of hours, or squeeze the cottage cheese well with your hands to remove as much liquid as possible.<\/p>\n
Use rice flour<\/u><\/strong> if you have it on hand. With rice flour pancakes has a softer texture, but all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, gluten-free flour, or even semolina will work great.<\/p>\n
Substitute the raisings<\/u><\/strong> – you can use different dry fruits or berries of your choice \u2013 cranberries, dry cherries, chopped dry strawberries, or apricots \u2013 are so good! You can also make the pancakes without filling.<\/p>\n
Before cooking the pancakes,<\/u><\/strong> shape them into balls, then roll them in flour, press each ball down with your fingers to make patties, and remove any excess flour.<\/p>\n
Cook cottage cheese pancakes<\/u><\/strong> on a preheated skillet on medium-low heat (to let them cook through and prevent browning) until crisp golden tops.<\/p>\n
Make-Ahead and Reheating Cottage Cheese Pancakes<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n
Cottage Cheese Pancakes are perfect for making ahead and meal prep. You can make the pancakes in advance and store them in an airtight container for up to 5 days.<\/p>\n
Here are the ways to reheat leftover pancakes:<\/p>\n
\n
in a toaster<\/u><\/strong> – pop the pancakes in one at a time and toast until heated through. Use a fork to take them out.<\/li>\n
in the microwave<\/u><\/strong> \u2013 heat the pancakes for 1 to 2 minutes. It\u2019s a quick method, but you may lose the crispy edges of the pancakes.<\/li>\n
in a skillet<\/u><\/strong> \u2013 brush your skillet with some oil or butter and heat the pancakes on medium heat until crispy on the outside and warmed through.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nToppings For Cottage Cheese Pancakes<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\nI like serving the Cottage Cheese Pancakes with maple syrup, honey, this Blueberry Sauce<\/a> or Chocolate Banana Spread<\/a> plus plain Greek yogurt. Here are some other topping ideas:<\/p>\n

1 egg<\/li>\n
2 tbsp. (20 g) erythritol\/stevia or sweetener of choice<\/li>\n

3 Tbsp. (or 15g) rice flour or any other flour, plus about 2 Tbsp. for dredging<\/li>\n

How to Make Low Carb Cottage Cheese Pancakes<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n
\n
In a large mixing bowl, add the cottage cheese, egg, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Using a hand blender, mix just until the cheese mixture is almost smooth. (You can also use a food processor or mash the cottage cheese into little pieces with a fork).<\/li>\n
Add 3 tablespoons of flour and \u00bd teaspoon of baking powder and stir with a spatula just until combined. Stir in raisins. The dough should be very soft, but should not stick to your hands. $\"Low$ <\/li>\n
Place the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour on a medium plate. Scoop out the cheese mixture with a tablespoon or a cookie scoop and place into the plate with the flour. Form it into a ball and roll in the flour. Press the ball on the top to make a small patty. With hands, remove excess flour and set aside your pancake. Repeat this process until the cheese mixture is gone. $\"Low$ <\/li>\n
Heat a large nonstick skillet on low-medium, brush with the oil. Place the pancakes into the preheated skillet and cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden.<\/li>\n
Transfer to a platter and serve with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
