Calories: 95kcal
Ingredients
- ¾ cup cottage cheese
- ¾ cup milk of choice
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 ¼ cup flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
- Mix-ins of choice: chocolate chips, blueberries, crumbled sausage, crumbled bacon, etc.
- For serving: maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Add the cottage cheese and milk to a blender and blend until completely smooth. Pour the mixture into a large mixing bowl.
- Add the egg, maple syrup, melted (and cooled) butter or avocado oil, and vanilla and whisk the wet ingredients together well.
- Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and whisk until smooth.
- Spray a muffin tray well with oil spray to prevent sticking. Evenly divide the batter between the muffin tins. Add any mix-ins of choice on top of the batter.
- Place the muffin tray in the oven for 10-14 minutes, until the edges are just turning golden brown.
Notes
- If you want to freeze these pancake bites, we recommend letting them sit in the freezer on a sheet pan for a few hours and then transferring them to an airtight container or ziploc bag/freezer bag. That way, the pancake muffin bites won't stick together. Then, simply microwave them on a busy morning for a quick breakfast!
- It is still possible to make these pancake bites if you have dietary restrictions. For a gluten-free option, use 1 to 1 gluten-free flour.
