These cottage cheese oat pancakes are denser and thicker in texture. Packed with protein from the cottage cheese and eggs, and fibre from the oats, these are designed to keep you satisfied and energised. The pancakes aren’t sweet, so a drizzle of honey or maple syrup will bring a subtle sweetness and team these with sweet, juicy fresh fruit to bring moisture to the pancakes.
Perfect for a cosy weekend brunch or healthy snack.

The Recipe
Cottage Cheese Oat Pancakes
Ingredients
- 1 large egg
- 30 g oats
- ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 100 g low-fat cottage cheese
- 60 g plain flour
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup for dressing
- cooking spray oil or coconut oil / butter for cooking
Instructions
- In a bowl combine the egg, oats, bicarbonate of soda, cottage cheese, and plain flour.
- Stir till well mixed. Sometimes eggs are different sizes so if the large egg is on the smaller size, you can add a little water (1 tbsp at a time), if the mixture is too thick.
- Heat a non-stick pan (skillet) over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray or butter.
- Use a ladle to scoop the batter into the pan to form pancakes. If your pan is large enough you can cook a couple at a time. Cook for a few minutes until you can slide a spatula underneath the pancake and it comes away clean, then flip and cook until golden brown on both sides.
- Plate up the pancakes and drizzle with honey or maple syrup, and add fresh sliced fruit.
