Step-by-Step Instructions for Cottage Cheese Pancakes
  1. Combine cottage cheese and eggs in a bowl, whisking until mostly smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Add oat flour, granulated sweetener, baking powder, and salt; gently fold until just combined.
  3. Stir the batter gently until all ingredients are mixed; keep some lumps for fluffiness, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Stir in vanilla extract for added flavor, mixing for an additional 30 seconds.
  5. If using, fold in optional add-ins like fruits or nuts, ensuring even distribution without overmixing.
  6. Heat lightly greased griddle over medium heat (about 350°F or 175°C), check readiness with water drops.
  7. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface, spacing scoops about 2 inches apart.
  8. Cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form and edges look set.
  9. Flip pancakes when ready and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  10. Check for doneness; they should feel firm and spring back when pressed.
  11. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a preheated oven at 200°F (90°C) if desired.
