Ingredients

Scale

1 cup Halal Certified Cottage Cheese
2 units Halal Certified Large Eggs
1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 tsp Alcohol-Free Vanilla Extract
1 tsp Baking Powder
1 tbsp Pure Maple Syrup or Honey
1 tsp Lemon Juice
1 pinch Salt
1 tbsp Unsalted Butter or Coconut Oil

Instructions

  1. Gather all halal certified ingredients and crack the two eggs into a large mixing bowl
  2. Whisk the eggs gently until well combined, then add the cottage cheese, alcohol-free vanilla extract, lemon juice, and maple syrup
  3. In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt to ensure even distributio
  4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, taking care not to overmix; small lumps in the batter are fine
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat and grease with a small amount of halal-certified butter or oil
  6. Use a quarter-cup measuring cup to scoop the batter onto the hot skillet
  7. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes on the first side until small bubbles form on the edges
  8. Carefully flip the pancake and cook for another 2 minutes until golden brow
  9. Repeat the process for the remaining batter, keeping finished pancakes warm in a low oven if necessary

Notes

Keep the stove heat relatively low to prevent the cottage cheese from burning.

For a smoother texture resembling a crepe, blend all ingredients in a blender for 30 seconds.

Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking to allow the flour to hydrate fully for a more tender pancake.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months with parchment paper between layers.

To make this gluten-free, replace the all-purpose flour with halal-certified oat or almond flour.
