Food on Fridays with Ann
I found instructions for making Oatmeal Cottage Cheese Pancakes here. It sounded simple and healthy, requiring only four ingredients:
- ½ cup oatmeal
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 4 egg whites
Intrigued by the simplicity, I decided to give them a whirl. Literally. I whirled them together in the blender and poured the mixture onto the griddle.
They turned out a little flatter than our usual pancakes, but what an outstanding option for people seeking a gluten-free, high-protein breakfast alternative!
They were quick to make, tasty, and filling.Here’s the recipe in one place, but it really is that simple:Oatmeal Cottage Cheese Pancakes
- ½ cup oatmeal
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 4 egg whites
Whir together the ingredients in a blender and pour onto a hot griddle coated with cooking spray. Top with your favorite pancake toppings and enjoy!

This is such an interesting recipe – what a great way to make pancakes so much better for you, and they look delicious too. Thank you for hosting, Ann.
Four ingredient pancakes. So easy! I’ll have to give those a try. (I like flat pancakes – so they’ll be right up my alley) Thanks for the idea, and thank for hosting.
All into the blender and that is an excellent method to mix these up. Eggs awhile received a bad rap, so I would use two whole eggs instead of the whites. Instead of a bowl of oatmeal, this is a great way to enjoy oats differently. Jam or honey to top mine off. This is a must try!
Well, heck, I can eat that!
Great looking pancakes, and love that they are gluten free 🙂
We love oatmeal cottage cheese pancakes! They are super easy and healthy. I like to add cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice mix to change things up.
I don’t know where the linky went!
My apologies to participants–I’ll look into it.
Thank you so much for sharing these delicious and nutritious pancakes with the Gallery of Favourites, Ann!
