Ingredients
  

  • 3 eggs large
  • 1 cup cottage cheese can substitute for low fat cottage cheese
  • 1 cup Almond Flour can substitute for coconut flour
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar or you can use any granulated sweetener of your choice. I used Golden Monk fruit.
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Cooking spray or Avocado oil

Optional ingredients

  • 1/4 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1 Tablespoon all purpose flour or GF Flour If the batter is too thin
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda mixed with 1/4 tsp. vinegar

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat pan (skillet) to high heat then lower to medium heat.
  • Combine all the ingredients together in a medium bowl and mix using the whisk or fork for about 1 minutes.
  • Use cooking spray or Avocado oil to grease the pre-heated skillet pan. Add 3-4 small even rounds onto the heated pan and cook for about 2 minutes on one side until golden brown and it’s easy to flip and then another minute or two on the other side.

Notes

This recipe makes approx. 12 pancakes. Nutrition information is per 1 pancake. I calculate using Spark recipes. Please feel free to calculate nutrition information using your own app.
I noted that I added one tablespoon of flour. This is optional but makes it way easier to flip.
I noted that I added 1/2 teaspoon baking soda mixed with ¼ teaspoon vinegar.
  • The baking soda acts as a leavening agent, causing the batter to rise, while the vinegar reacts with the baking soda to create carbon dioxide bubbles, further aiding in the rising process. This method also helps balance the acidity in the batter, leading to a more balanced and flavorful pancake.
If you're allergic to Almond flour, you can substitute it with 3/4 cup coconut flour or ½ cup gluten-free flour.
When adding batter to a pan, use a small amount. The batter tends to expand while pancakes are being cooked.
