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, being careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and 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

For a lighter pancake, substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
These pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in the toaster.
Customize your toppings with yogurt, berries, or nuts for extra flavor.
