Cottage Cheese Oat Pancakes

"My Cottage Cheese Oat Pancakes are super easy to make for a protein-packed start to your day. They’re made in under 15 minutes with just 3 ingredients, making them the easiest light and fluffy pancakes ever. My guys love them. It is a perfect way to start your day. If you want even more delicious pancakes, try my sheet pan pancakes and my whole wheat pancakes. Perfect for sunday mornings or brunch. This recipe is great because it makes a fluffy pancake that’s packed full of nutrients, and there’s no messy flour involved. This recipe is perfect to add to an easy dinner recipe stash, even if you are not a cottage cheese fan. The combination of cottage cheese and oats creates a uniquely tender and slightly chewy texture that’s far more interesting than plain flour pancakes. They tend to be fluffier and moister in this cottage cheese recipe. Compared to standard pancakes, these are often higher in protein (thanks to the cottage cheese) and fiber (from the oats), making them a more satisfying and nutritious breakfast or brunch option. They have a subtle tanginess from the cottage cheese that complements the nutty flavor of the oats beautifully. The overall taste is satisfying without being overly sweet. Despite their nutritional benefits and interesting texture, the batter comes together quickly and easily in a blender or food processor. Like regular pancakes, they serve as a blank canvas for a wide variety of toppings, from fresh fruit and maple syrup to yogurt and nut butter. The ideas are endless. When made with certified gluten-free oats, these pancakes can be a delicious and satisfying option for those avoiding gluten. No need for oat flour, almond flour pancakes, coconut flour pancakes, or whole wheat flour. Oatmeal cottage cheese pancakes often require less flour (or no flour at all) and can be made with less added sugar than traditional pancakes, making them a healthier indulgence."
