A delicious twist on classic pancakes made with cottage cheese and topped with fresh strawberry syrup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Butter or oil for cooking
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for syrup)
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the strawberry syrup: In a small saucepan, combine strawberries, sugar, water, and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes until the strawberries break down and the syrup thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  2. Make the pancake batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cottage cheese and eggs until well combined. Add flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined; some cottage cheese curds will remain visible.
  3. Cook the pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil. Spoon 1/4 cup portions of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
  4. Serve: Stack warm pancakes on plates and generously spoon fresh strawberry syrup over the top. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Ensure strawberries are ripe for the best flavor in the syrup.
  • Feel free to top with additional fresh strawberries if desired.
  • Leftover pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in a toaster.
