Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup full fat cottage cheese
  • 2 large ripe bananas, mashed until smooth with some small lumps remaining
  • 3 large eggs, beaten lightly
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Butter or oil for greasing the pan
  • Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix the mashed bananas, cottage cheese, beaten eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir gently until just combined; the mixture may look a bit chunky.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly blended.
  • Gradually pour the dry ingredients into the wet bowl. Fold the flour in carefully using a spatula or wooden spoon, mixing just until no big patches of flour remain. Some lumps are fine.
  • Let the batter rest at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to activate the baking powder and thicken the batter.
  • Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small pat of butter or a little oil, spreading it evenly. When it sizzles gently, the pan is ready.
  • Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles appear and edges look set, then flip and cook for 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the pancakes warm with favorite toppings like fresh fruit, maple syrup, or yogurt.
  • Notes

    These fluffy banana cottage cheese pancakes combine the natural sweetness and creaminess of ripe bananas with the light tang and protein boost from cottage cheese, resulting in a tender inside, golden outside, moist and fluffy texture perfect for a healthy breakfast.
