Cottage cheese pancakes

Tender, protein-rich pancakes made by blending cottage cheese for a quick, mix-in-friendly breakfast.

Published Apr 23, 2026, 3:30 PM EDT | LehighValleyLive

When done properly, these protein-packed pancakes are worth the hype. A blender (regular or immersion) does most of the work for you, blending the cottage cheese curds so that they lend tenderness and protein to the pancakes without tasting “cheesy.” An ice cream scoop is great for making quick work of dropping the batter into the pan -- just be mindful that the pancakes will spread a bit before they’re ready to flip. This is a great base recipe for mix-ins such as chocolate chips or blueberries, and it can be easily doubled to feed a crowd.
