Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • cup All-Purpose Flour
  • teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoon Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
  • 1 tablespoon Poppy Seeds

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cottage Cheese
  • ¾ cup Milk
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

    Mix dry ingredients
  • Blend the wet ingredients: Add cottage cheese, eggs, milk, lemon juice, vanilla, and oil to a blender. Blend until mostly smooth.
    blend cottage cheese with milk until smooth
  • Combine the batter: Pour blended wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Let batter rest 5 minutes so the protein powder hydrates. Add 1–2 tablespoons extra milk if the batter becomes too thick.
    fold together dry and wet ingredients for the pancakes
  • Cook the pancakes: Heat a lightly greased skillet over medium heat. Pour about ⅓ cup batter per pancake. Cook until bubbles form and edges begin to set, about 2–3 minutes. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden.
