Cottage Cheese Oat Pancakes {Blender}

There is nothing more comforting than a stack of fluffy pancakes. It gets even better when they are easy to make in just one blender using budget-friendly simple ingredients like rolled oats, bananas, and cottage cheese. To kick it up a notch, we are adding juicy blueberries for a burst of summer flavor.

Cottage cheese is such an underrated ingredient that you can add to any sweet or savory recipe. It adds moisture, creaminess, and extra protein.

As a result? These cottage cheese pancakes are soft, fluffy and yet a little creamy. You have all the texture in one bite.

Blender pancakes have been my favorite way to make pancakes since I became a busy mom of two toddler boys. It makes the process so easy.

All you need is to chuck all the ingredients in one blender, blend until smooth then use the batter for pancakes or waffles.

I highly recommend using full-fat cottage cheese for this recipe because it adds that extra creamy texture.

How to Make Blender Pancakes

What Else to Add to These Pancakes

There are so many variations to make blender pancakes more fun.

Here are some of my favorites:

1. Banana Chunks
2. Chocolate Chips
3. Strawberries, Raspberries
4. Walnuts

You can either add them as toppings or fold into the pancake batters.

Freeze The Pancakes To Save Those Busy Mornings

These oat pancakes are perfectly freezer-friendly. In fact, I always make double the batch so I can freeze them for a delicious make-ahead breakfast.

First, make sure they are cooled completely before freezing. This prevents them from sticking together.

Then, you can either place a piece of parchment paper or wax paper between the pancakes or freeze them individually on a big baking sheet.

Once they are frozen into individual piece of pancakes, you can put all of them in a big freezer storage bag

To reheat the pancakes, the fastest way is to microwave 20 – 30 seconds per pancake. Sometimes this method could make them rubbery if you overheat the pancakes.

I like to finish them in a toaster or over the pan. Heat a little bit of butter on a non-sticky pan until melty, place the pancake on, and cook over medium to low heat until heated through.
