Ingredients
For the Pancakes:

Pinch of salt
Butter or cooking spray (for cooking)
Optional Toppings:
Fresh berries
Sliced banana
Drizzle of honey or maple syrup

Directions
Step 1: Blend the Batter
Add the rolled oats, cottage cheese, banana, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt to a blender.
Blend on high until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
Let the batter sit for 1-2 minutes to thicken.
Step 2: Cook the Pancakes
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a little butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
