Cottage Cheese Pancakes with Berry Compote
Cottage cheese makes these pancakes extra fluffy—and adds protein and calcium to your breakfast, too. Win-win!
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups flour
3 tbsp. (packed) light brown sugar
3/4 tsp. baking powder
1 container (16 oz.) small-curd cottage cheese
1 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
4 tsp. lemon zest
1 1/4 tsp. pure vanilla extract
3 cups mixed fresh or frozen berries
confectioners’ sugar, for dusting
Preparation
In large bowl, whisk first 3 ingredients and 3/4 tsp. salt. In medium bowl, whisk cottage cheese, milk, eggs, lemon zest, and vanilla; mix into dry ingredients. In skillet, cook half-cupfuls of batter over medium heat until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. In saucepan, cook berries over medium heat, stirring often, until juices release, about 5 minutes. Top pancakes with berry compote. Dust with confectioners’ sugar.
