Cottage Cheese Pancakes With Indian Spices image

We eat these Indian-spiced pancakes for dinner, along with a green salad. They don't even need a topping. If you do want to top them with something, a cucumber raita or plain yogurt would work well

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 45m

Yield 16 to 18 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 ounces (170 grams) cauliflower (florets only)
1 cup (250 grams) low-fat cottage cheese
3/4 cup low-fat milk (1 percent or 2 percent) milk
2 eggs, separated and at room temperature, plus 1 egg white
1 tablespoon flaxseeds, soaked in 3 tablespoons water for 5 minutes or longer
1 cup (140 grams) whole-wheat pastry flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)
2 teaspoons garam masala
1 tablespoon nigella seeds
1 cup grated carrot (150 grams)
2 tablespoons chopped chives (optional)
Butter or oil for cooking

Steps:

  • Place the cottage cheese in a sieve and drain for 15 minutes
  • Steam the cauliflower for 5 minutes, remove from the heat and chop fine. Set aside
  • In a medium bowl, beat together the cottage cheese, milk, egg yolks and flaxseeds with soaking water. In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and garam masala. Stir in the nigella seeds
  • Combine the dry and wet ingredients and whisk together. Fold in the cauliflower, carrot and chives
  • Beat the egg whites to stiff but not dry peaks and gently fold into the batter
  • Heat a griddle or a large skillet, either nonstick or seasoned cast iron, over medium-high heat. Brush with butter or oil. Use a 1/4-cup ladle or cup measure to drop 3 to 4 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto your heated pan or griddle. These take longer to cook than regular all-flour pancakes, 4 to 5 minutes on the first side. Cook until they are brown on the edges and bubbles break through, then carefully slide a spatula underneath and flip them over. Cook on the other side until they are nicely browned. Serve hot

WHOLE WHEAT COTTAGE CHEESE PANCAKES



Whole Wheat Cottage Cheese Pancakes image

I love cottage cheese pancakes and wanted to make a version that was a bit healthier and that my toddler would also love. This was a hit! (at least the two times I've made it so far!) You can use oil in place of the applesauce, white flour in place of the whole wheat, and regular milk for the soy, for a less healthier but yummy version. These also freeze well which is great for feeding a toddler.

COTTAGE CHEESE PANCAKES



Cottage Cheese Pancakes image

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound low-fat cottage cheese
2/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup multigrain oatmeal
2 egg yolks
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
6 egg whites
Vegetable oil
Accompaniment: Peach and Berry Salad

Steps:

  • Mix cottage cheese, flour, oatmeal, egg yolks, honey, milk, vanilla and cardamom in large bowl. Beat whites in another large bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into cottage cheese mixture in 2 additions.
  • Preheat oven to 200°F. Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Brush with oil. Spoon batter onto skillet by 1/3 cupfuls, forming 4-inch-diameter pancakes. Cook pancakes until bottoms are brown and bubbles form on top, about 3 minutes. Turn; cook until bottoms are brown and pancakes are cooked through, about 4 minutes.
  • Transfer to plate and place in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately; pass Peach and Berry Salad to spoon over pancakes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cauliflower: Fresh cauliflower florets yield the best results in these pancakes. Avoid using frozen cauliflower, as it can be watery and make the pancakes mushy.
  • Grate the cauliflower finely: Finely grated cauliflower helps the pancakes cook evenly and hold together better. You can use a food processor or a box grater to grate the cauliflower.
  • Squeeze out excess moisture: After grating the cauliflower, be sure to squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This will help prevent the pancakes from becoming soggy.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: A non-stick skillet is essential for cooking these pancakes. If you don't have a non-stick skillet, you can grease a regular skillet with cooking spray or butter.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat: Medium heat is ideal for cooking these pancakes. If the heat is too high, the pancakes will burn before they have a chance to cook through.
  • Flip the pancakes carefully: These pancakes are delicate, so be careful when flipping them. Use a spatula to gently loosen the edges of the pancake before flipping it over.

Conclusion:

These whole wheat cauliflower cottage cheese pancakes are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They are packed with protein, fiber, and vegetables, and they are also low in calories and carbohydrates. Whether you are looking for a gluten-free, grain-free, or low-carb breakfast option, these pancakes are a great choice. Serve them with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or yogurt.
