Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Blend the full-fat cottage cheese, large eggs, oat or almond flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, lemon zest, honey or maple syrup (if using), and a pinch of salt in a blender until smooth.
  2. If the cottage cheese is watery, drain it before blending. Add more oat flour if the batter is too loose.
  3. Gently fold in fresh blueberries using a spatula, ensuring even distribution.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it. Watch for a drop of water to sizzle.
  5. Scoop about two tablespoons of batter for each pancake bite and space them evenly on the skillet. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until edges set.
  6. Flip each pancake bite and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until both sides are golden brown.
  7. Serve warm with Greek yogurt, extra honey or maple syrup, blueberries, or powdered sugar.
