Blueberry Cottage Cheese Pancakes

[heart_this] · Aug 4, 2009 · 32 Comments

Blueberry Cottage Cheese Pancakes

The farmers market has been full of fresh local blueberries for the last week or so and I have certainly been enjoying them. I have mostly been having them for breakfast on plain yogurt or cottage cheese with some maple syrup syrup on top. Over the long weekend I decided that it was time to do something else with them and the first thing that came to mind was pancakes. Blueberry pancakes are a staple every blueberry season and I seem to do something new each time. I had recently come across the idea of a cottage cheese pancake and I thought that they would be even better with some blueberries. The cottage cheese pancakes had a bit more liquid in the batter than I am normally used to but they turned out great! They were nice and moist and light an fluffy and good! Most of the cottage cheese had melted into the pancakes but some of the larger pieces were still visible and they added a really nice texture. Of course I smothered the pancakes in maple syrup which goes really well with blueberries. What a great way to kick off blueberry season!

    If it works with ricotta, it's gotta work with cottage. Sounds like these would be some fluffy cakes!

    These look like they would be addictive. The addition of cottage cheese would make them all the better.

    I'm a huge fan of both cottage cheese pancakes and blueberry pancakes…I can't believe I never thought to combine them.

    Now I can't wait for the weekend to come so I can give these a try (not that I wasn't already wishing for the weekend…that starts by, oh, 10am Monday).

    Great pic, too, by the way~

    they looks delicious. I just read an article about how good blueblerries are good for you. They contain more anti-oxidants than acai. I've been buying acai for a while for its nutritional value while blueberries are even much better. I've been addicted since then. And they're in season. Gotta make some blueberry pancake for breakfast tomorrow for my man. Thanks for sharing

    Beautiful! I've been eating lots of frozen blueberries lately, can't wait until we can get some fresh ones.

    Hi Kevin,
    You think frozen berries will make it mushy? I've got a few punnets in my freezer. And it's difficult to get cottage cheese where I stay, I'll probably just use cheddar cheese.

    Blessed Homemaker: Frozen blueberries would certainly work. Just mix them into the batter last while still frozen.

    Just made these last week and wanted to tell you that they were by far the fluffiest pancakes I've ever made! The texture is as light as a feather and the flavor is just right. They soaked up the maple syrup like it was going out of style – YUM. Thanks for the recipe, it's a keeper!
