Oatmeal Cottage Cheese Pancakes

bramble's Note:

These are wonderful and are almost too healthy to be true. Lots of calcium, protein, fiber, etc. I usually eat them without any topping and just keep popping them in my mouth! Yum. But a good jam will do them nicely as well.

A few years ago I followed a recipe for cottage cheese pancakes that used whole wheat flour. I was searching for that when I found this recipe. I don't even want the other one anymore!

I used modifications suggested: two whole eggs instead of whites, and added a bit of cinnamon. While making them, I forgot I was supposed to blend it all and just mixed it in the bowl by hand, which still worked fine.

Thanks for this new favorite!

My mother used to make these for my sister and me. She would use lemon or orange essence rather than vanilla. Yum!

I followed the advice of other reviewers and added 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, 1 whole egg and 2 egg whites instead of 4 egg whites, and a tsp. of maple syrup. These were very good for a healthy pancake. I tried them previously with 0% plain Greek yogurt in place of the cottage cheese, and they were more rubbery that way. We liked them better with the cottage cheese. Thanks for the healthy recipe!
