High Protein Crepes
3 ingredients. No flour. Pancakes that actually fuel you.
FLOURLESS COTTAGE CHEESE PANCAKES RECIPE
High-Protein | No Flour | Quick Breakfast or Snack
Quick Description:
These flourless cottage cheese pancakes are soft, crepe-like, and naturally high in protein. Made with just 3 ingredients, they’re the perfect fuel for mornings, snacks, or dessert — minus the bloat and carb crash.
Servings & Nutrition:
Yield: ~6 pancakes
Prep Time: 3 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: ~13 minutes
Protein (per 2 pancakes): ~18–20g
Carbs: ~4–5g
WW Points: ~2–3 per serving (depends on sugar used)
Ingredients:
200g cottage cheese (~¾ cup, small curd or whipped)
2 large eggs
1 tbsp sugar or sweetener (optional)
Optional Flavors:
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg
Zest of lemon or orange
1–2 tbsp protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
Optional Toppings & Fillings:
Greek yogurt, nut butter, sugar-free jam
Cream cheese + berries
Cocoa drizzle + crushed nuts
Instructions:
1. Blend the Batter
Add cottage cheese, eggs, and sugar to a blender or food processor.
Blend until completely smooth and pourable.
2. Heat the Pan
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat.
Lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.
3. Cook the Pancakes
Pour 2–3 tbsp batter per pancake into the pan.
Use the back of a spoon to spread into a thin circle.
Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, flipping gently once edges lift easily.
4. Fill or Stack & Serve
Roll with your favorite filling or stack and top with fruit, syrup, or cream.
Variations:
Savory Version: Skip sugar, add salt, herbs, and fill with smoked salmon or avocado.
Chocolate Pancakes: Add 1 tbsp cocoa powder + sugar-free chocolate chips.
Protein Boost: Add 1 scoop vanilla whey or plant protein to batter.
Tips:
Don’t skip blending — it smooths the curds for a crepe-like texture.
Use medium-low heat to prevent burning and allow gentle browning.
If the batter is too thick, thin it with 1–2 tbsp almond milk.
Storage:
Refrigerate for up to 3 days, stacked with parchment between.
Reheat in a nonstick skillet or microwave for 30 seconds.
Freezes well — roll with filling, freeze, and toast later!
