I present to you my version of
Cottage Oatmeal Pancakes
The Base:
1/2 cup oats
1/3 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup almond milk
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
The Topping:
1 tablespoon peanut butter
1 medium sliced banana
I stink at making pancakes look pretty - but I don't practice making them so that's my explanation ;-)
ReplyDeleteOooh! I'm making a different pancake every weekend, I think I'll try this one this Saturday!
ReplyDeleteThose look AWESOME!! I love having fun deciding what ingredients to put into my pancakes but bananas and chocolate chips are definitely an all time favorite topping!
ReplyDeleteLast time I tried making pancakes with cottage cheese, the cheese melted and stuck to the pan :(
ReplyDeleteHaven't tried it with cc,looks good though!
ReplyDeleteYummmmmmy!!! Your "work in progress" looks perfect to me... but then again, maybe I am biased because of your choice of toppings.
ReplyDeleteFor how can something be bad if it includes chocolate?
:) :) :)
Love,

I've actually never made pancakes before. It looks pretty easy when you use just the regular mix...not sure about cottage cheese, that'd be harder for me haha! I actually just cooked scrambled eggs for the first time ever the other day. I know how to cook...but only just cook my favorite meals and they are pretty simple.
ReplyDeleteAs for the hills...I think I'll just come visit you on hill workout days and we can do them together haha. Might be a tad expensive but I get to see you and that's worth it, right?
YAY I need another way to make pancakes aside from the ONE way I made them...that one time, haha. They sound interesting with the cottage cheese.
ReplyDeleteOh that looks awesome. I'm really bummed I just had to throw out some nasty looking cottage cheese from the back of the refrigerator- otherwise I'd be ON IT!
ReplyDeleteMmm. The pancakes look fantastic! Whenever I make them with oats, they turn into a big, sloppy mess! haha. I'm guessing that cottage cheese holds them together better than eggs. :-)
ReplyDeleteHave you tried coconut flour pancakes? They're my favorite!
I love bananas for breakfast!
ReplyDeleteYOur pancakes look great and I m sure they taste really really good!
I love pancakes. We're having some for dinner Friday and I have been looking forward to it all week! Yours look gorgeous. Love the topping choices.
ReplyDeleteI love pancakes but haven't had them in a long time! It is too much effort to find gluten-free ones that don't have soy too. These look great! Thanks Kelsey for the great idea. I am going to give these a try!
ReplyDeleteWhat a healthy, protein filled breakfast pancake, and those chocolate chips and bananas add the perfect touch!
ReplyDeleteLove these yummy pancakes!!!
ReplyDeleteI say even if they dont look pretty, as long as they taste yummy, its all good in my book!!!!!!!
Pancakes made this way are delish, I love making them with cottage cheese!
Love ya girl! xoxo
This looks fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteI think its hard to make wheat free pancakes perfect. Takes skill and those look pretty perfect to me. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for you kind words on my blog. they made my day.
Mmmm... I love pancakes, but I never make them! I really need to make these sometime! I've always wanted to put oats in the batter....so pretty Kelsey!
ReplyDeleteMust Make Pancakes....your pictures are AMAZING!
ReplyDelete...your just missing the dousing of maple syrup...;)
Oh - it was published!! I kept trying to comment in the past and it wouldn't let me! ...I'm always reading - luv your posts :) ...and your insight.
ReplyDeletei love pancakes. I have been branching out into them bigtime lately. WIth lots of stuff.
ReplyDeleteI will be interested to hear what your fave breakfasts are after u keep experimenting with so much.
I used to be awful at making pancakes but after some practice I'm now a pro :) Those look delicious especially with the chocolate chips on top!
ReplyDeleteohh those look DELICIOUS!!! great work and I love your toppings! with pancakes before I have mashed up the banana and used that on top instead of banana slices and it ROCKS!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have *never* made oatmeal pancakes but have been dreaming up a recipe for them, and here you are with a fabulous looking one! They really look delish. I think they look BEAUTIFUL :)
ReplyDeleteI love to use cottage cheese in pancakes. It's just not something I keep in my fridge at all times....
ReplyDeleteI think your 'cakes look awesome! Can I have a bite?
I'm awful at flipping pancakes, too... mostly because I get way too impatient to wait until it's actually TIME to flip them! ;)
ReplyDelete<3 <3
hmmmm . . . I just tried to comment and it didnt work. Weird.
ReplyDeleteAnyway - these look SO good!
holy YUM!! I WANT SOME!
ReplyDeleteIf you opened a restaurant and sold nothing but pancakes I would travel all the way to Canada to eat there.
ReplyDeleteJust Saying.
Those look amazing! Honestly, it doesn't matter what i looks like underneath...just stack it with good stuff!!!
ReplyDeleteYAYAYA girl i am sooo glad you loved them!!! they are so good, right? i need to make these SOON , esp after seeing them on your bloggie!! hehe :)
ReplyDeleteUmmm these look AMAZING! And I love cottage cheese in pancakes, I think it gives them a great texture!!
ReplyDeleteI've never tried making a pancake with cottage cheese, but now I want to! :)
ReplyDeleteThose are adorable pancakes! :) I'd say its worth the practice ;)
ReplyDeleteThose look easy enough! I tried to make oatmeal pancakes once and they were BAD. I'll have to try this.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll have to wait another three years to get good at pancakes then :P
ReplyDeleteBut that said, I never practice because I'm not a pancake fan.
So I may just have to stick to baked goods.
Your pancakes look yum though! They could convert me :P
These look AMAZING! I love your pancake posts! I never eat them, I need to make a batch soon with some protein!!!!
ReplyDeletexoxo
my oh my - what a wonderful combo of flavours!!!!
ReplyDeleteThese look delicious! It looks like the cottage cheese makes them super fluffy!
ReplyDeleteHoly comments!
ReplyDeleteI've been craving pancakes lately. I think it's high time I make some!
I'm really wishing I could find the coconut milk kefir somewhere, because I think it would make a great pancake batter ingredient. I wonder what could replace that cottage cheese,,.
I never made good pancakes until I got an electric skillet. Now, they always come out great!
I think you've just managed to convince me that I need to practice my own pancake making skills. It's been too long since I've had them, and I fear I may have gotten rusty. I'm not sure if I could let go of my favorite oatmeal breakfast, but a pancake lunch sounds like a super idea :) And a chocolate/banana/nut butter topping? Bliss.
ReplyDeletei love the idea of putting cottage cheese in pancakes - i sometimes use it at topping
ReplyDeleteWhat a great recipe!! They look delicious. And no worries - I can't make a pretty pancake to save my soul, either. I assume it's because I'm more apt to use WW flour rather than AP, but that's also a good excuse for me just being a bad pancake flipper :P
ReplyDeleteI'm horrible at making pancakes too. Like, I can make them taste good but they usually look like poor hobo pancakes. I just don't understand how people can make them so perfectly round and golden! It's definitely a talent that I wasn't born with.
ReplyDeleteNice job with the pancakes! They look delicious and full of good-for-you ingredients. I imagine they would keep me full for a long time :) I agree about the difficulty of making pancakes - it's hard! Yours look very pretty :)
ReplyDeleteHoly yum-those look amazing! My pancakes always come out jacked b/c I dont have a griddle. I was toying with the idea of buying one but now don't have enough space in my kitchen so sigh, no griddle for me and I have to either make a large one or a few mini pancakes on the stove top, sigh.
ReplyDeletedamn girl, those look fabooooosh!!!!
ReplyDeletei hope youre having a super wonderful happy day kelsey!!!
xoxox
Yum, yes, this looks great! I will definitely be making these pancakes once my vegan week is over!
ReplyDeleteDelish! I haven't made pancakes in far too long... oaty ones are so good! Thanks for the recipe :-)
ReplyDeleteoh goodness, these look good!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to my birthday black bean brownies in the morning!
Mmmm, those pancakes look amazing! Way better than any pancakes I've ever made... I might have to try those myself!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure all my failed breads in life got turned into pancakes. At which point they continued to be failures, of course, but naturally I just blamed that on the fact that pancake-making and I just don't jive. Ha. No seriously, I used to love making pancakes. But then I got too lazy to pour them all out individually into loonie shapes, so instead I turned all my pancakes into one big bread. I'm smart and efficient like that. ARHARHAR.
ReplyDeleteCottage cheese in pancakes--actually I tried that once but...I just couldn't get over the huge chunks of cheese... So I stuck to ricotta. :-) Lemon ricotta pancakes are BOMB!

Oooh, I have cottage cheese in the fridge right now (I rarely do) and have been trying to think of a way to use it apart from just, y'know, plain. Thanks Kelsey!
ReplyDeleteThose look awesome - I am the worst pancake maker ever, mine are always a huge mess, yet still tasty ;)
ReplyDeletehaha i love making pancakes but it takes work. they're mostly a weekend thing. you did great girl!!
ReplyDeleteIt has taken me far too long to figure out the whole pancake thing and now I can't stop making them!
ReplyDeleteWow...those do look amazing!! Does the cottage cheese mix completely in, or do you taste it in the pancake?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your first pretty pancake!! ;)
Wow! Those look so good! I am jealous :P I don't really do raw bananas though (they hurt my throat!), and I don't think I could last a morning without a bowl of oatmeal these days.
ReplyDeleteNo shame - pancake making and flipping can be a challenge and a half! Congrats on making a batch that worked out :)
<3 Tat
haha its never to old to start learning how to make pancakes :)
ReplyDeleteI love adding cottage cheese to pancakes for extra staying power.
Fiber 1 actually makes a pretty good mix if your pinched for time!
Ohhh this looks good! Maybe I could sub. the cottage cheese for silken tofu? Orrr coconut milk? haha darn vegan making everything complicated ;)
ReplyDeleteHomemade pancakes are amazing. Mine are never perfect but there are so many great recipes out there that I try a different one pretty much every time. I've definitely done the cottage cheese/oat thing before but not for quite a while. I need to again clearly, yours look AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteThose look AHmazing!
ReplyDeleteI am usually obsessed with PB & toast in the winter time...you're making me crave it though!!
ReplyDeleteYour poor finger :( I sliced me finger up REAL good a few months ago making lentil soup....I have the weirdest scar from it now!
Those deer coming up to you is AMAZING!!!! They are SOOOOO adorable!!! So trusting! I guess they know good peeps when they see one ;-)
Lovely post :-)
