Protein Pancakes with Cottage Cheese and Blueberries

Blending cottage cheese directly into the pancake batter is the trick here — it disappears completely once cooked, leaving behind pancakes that are noticeably fluffier and considerably higher in protein than a standard recipe. Warm blueberries cooked down with a touch of honey finish it off.

We tagged this fitness__athlete_nutrition and high-protein because the combination of cottage cheese, eggs, and oats gives these pancakes a genuine protein count well beyond typical batter. It's a common post-workout breakfast when you want something that still feels like a treat.

Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking — the oats soften slightly and the pancakes hold together better on the flip.
