Okay, so I’ve been trying to eat a bit healthier lately, and I stumbled upon this recipe for coconut flour cottage cheese pancakes. I thought, “Why not give it a shot?” They sounded interesting, and I’m always up for trying new things in the kitchen. Plus, I had all the ingredients just sitting in my pantry and fridge.
First, I gathered all my ingredients. I grabbed some coconut flour, a couple of eggs, a tub of cottage cheese, a bit of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Oh, and some vanilla extract because, you know, everything’s better with vanilla.
Mixing it all up was pretty straightforward. I dumped the dry ingredients into a bowl – the coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, I whisked together the eggs, cottage cheese, and vanilla extract. Then, I combined the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until they were just mixed. You don’t want to overmix this batter.

Cooking Time
Heating up my skillet, I greased it with a little bit of butter. You could use coconut oil too, but I was out. Once the pan was hot, I poured about a quarter cup of batter for each pancake. They started to bubble after a couple of minutes, so I flipped them over. They cooked for another minute or two until they were golden brown.
I ended up with a decent stack of pancakes. They were a bit denser than regular pancakes, but hey, that’s coconut flour for you. I topped them with some fresh berries and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Honestly, they turned out better than I expected. They were fluffy, a little bit tangy from the cottage cheese, and had a nice hint of coconut. It is a good try for who wants to eat healthier. I might play around with the recipe a bit more next time, maybe add some cinnamon or try different toppings. But yeah, not bad for a first attempt.
