Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
In another bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently 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 and edges look set.
Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 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 toppings.

Notes

For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
These pancakes can be stored in the fridge and reheated for a quick breakfast.
Adjust the thickness of the batter by adding more milk if desired.
