Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Measure out the cottage cheese, oats, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, salt, and any sweetener you’re using.
  2. Whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, vanilla extract, and sweetener until creamy but slightly lumpy.
