Lemon Cottage Cheese Pancakes with Blackberry Compote
Ingredients
For Pancakes
- 1 cup Cottage Cheese
- 1/3 cup All Purpose Flour
- 2 tbsp Canola Oil
- 3 Large Eggs
- Zest of 1 Lemon
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 tbsp Butter
For Blackberry Compote
- 1 lb Frozen Blackberries Unthawed
- Juice of 1 Lemon
- 1/4 cup Maple Syrup
Instructions
Let's make the Blackberry Compote first.
- In a small saucepan, on high-medium heat add the unthawed Blackberries, Lemon Juice, and Maple Syrup. Cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat. The compote will start to thicken like a syrup.
Now for the pancakes.
- In a food processor add the cottage cheese and pulse a few times. You don’t want the cottage cheese to be completely smooth.
- In a large bowl, add the Cottage Cheese, Flour, Oil, Eggs, Vanilla, and Lemon Zest. Mix together.
- In a large non-stick frying pan, on medium heat add 2 tbsp of butter. Let it melt.
- Scoop 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake into the pan. Flip the pancake once bubbles start to appear. Cook the other side until it is golden.
