Drizzle these pancakes with maple syrup or your favorite fruit sauce. They can also be served with fresh fruit and a dusting of confectioners' sugar.
Ingredients
-
¾ cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
-
1 tablespoon sugar
-
¾ teaspoon baking powder
-
¼ teaspoon baking soda
-
¾ cup low-fat (1 percent) cottage cheese
-
⅔ cup milk
-
2 large egg whites
-
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
-
5 teaspoons vegetable oil
Directions
-
In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Stir in cottage cheese, milk, egg whites, and vanilla.
-
In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium. Working in batches, drop cottage cheese mixture by 1/4 cupfuls into pan (2 or 3 at a time).

Cook until bottoms are set and tops have small bubbles, about 1 minute. Turn pancakes and cook until just firm in the center, 1 to 3 minutes more. Repeat, using remaining 3 teaspoons oil for the other batches.
