Equipment

Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, flour, eggs, milk, and sugar. Mix well until smooth.

- Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
Notes
You can add vanilla extract or cinnamon for extra flavor.
These pancakes freeze well, so feel free to make a larger batch for later consumption. Reheat in a toaster or microwave.
For a healthier option, consider using whole wheat flour or oat flour.
