Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Blend the ingredients: In a blender, combine the cottage cheese, ripe bananas, rolled oats, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth to create a thick batter.
- Preheat the skillet: Place a non-stick skillet on medium heat, allowing it to warm up.
- Cook the pancakes: Pour the batter into the skillet in small rounds, leaving enough space between each one for flipping.
- Flip with care: After 2-3 minutes, check the edges. Once they’re firm and the bottoms are golden brown, flip and repeat for the other side.
- Serve or store: Enjoy these pancake bites warm or cool them down for meal prep.
Notes
Use very ripe bananas for added sweetness and adjust batter consistency with milk if too thick. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
