Delicious and fluffy cottage cheese pancakes made with almond and einkorn flours, lightly sweetened with monk fruit blend, perfect for a high-protein breakfast that’s both satisfying and gluten-free when using tapioca flour.

Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cottage cheese (drain any extra liquid on top, if any)
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp Avocado oil (plus more as needed, for frying)

Dry Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup Wholesome Yum Blanched Almond Flour
  • 1/3 cup Einkorn flour (or tapioca flour for gluten free)
  • 2 tbsp Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp Sea salt

Instructions

  1. Blend Wet Ingredients: Place the cottage cheese and eggs in a blender and blend until the mixture is smooth and uniform, ensuring the cottage cheese is fully incorporated.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the almond flour, einkorn flour (or tapioca flour for gluten-free option), Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend, baking powder, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the blender. Blend again just until all ingredients are combined into a batter; avoid over-mixing.
  3. Heat the Pan: Heat a tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Make sure the oil coats the pan evenly to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook Pancakes: Pour the batter in 1/8 cup portions onto the hot skillet, forming small circles. Fry each pancake for 2-3 minutes until lots of bubbles appear on the surface, edges look set, and you can easily slide a spatula under them.
  5. Flip and Finish Cooking: Flip the pancakes carefully and fry for another 1-2 minutes or until golden brown on the other side.
  6. Repeat: Continue frying the rest of the batter in batches, adding more avocado oil to the pan as needed to keep the pancakes from sticking and to maintain frying quality.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, substitute einkorn flour with tapioca flour.
  • Make sure to drain excess liquid from cottage cheese before blending for best texture.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less monk fruit sweetener to taste.
  • Use a non-stick skillet for easier flipping and cooking.
  • Serve warm with fresh fruit, syrup, or your favorite pancake toppings.
