Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
In a separate bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; avoid overmixing, a few lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with additional maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite pancake toppings.

Notes

Adjust the thickness of the batter by adding more milk if desired.
For a twist, try adding blueberries or chocolate chips to the batter before cooking.
These pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
