Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs until well beaten. Add 16 oz cottage cheese, 1 tsp vanilla, 3 Tbsp honey and whisk until combined. Stir in 1/3 cup raisins, if using.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1 cup + 2 Tbsp flour and 1 tsp baking soda (if your baking soda has any lumps at all, sift it into the flour). Whisk the dry ingredients into your wet ingredients.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium/low heat and add 2 Tbsp oil. Once the oil is hot, place a heaping tablespoon of pancake batter into the hot oil and sauté until golden and puffed up (about 2-3 min per side). I recommend a splatter guard since these do create a little bit of a splatter. If it's splattering alot, turning the heat down will help. Serve warm with sour cream, maple syrup, fruit or jam, or all of the above!

Steps:
- In a large bowl blend the dry ingredients.
- in blender add the wet ingredients, puree until smooth. (or you can whisk the wet ingredients. But I don't like the cottage cheese to be chunky in the pancakes, so I blend it in the blender.) Mix together the wet and dry ingredients and let sit fo about 20 minutes.
- heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray.
- Pour 1/3 cup into hot pan and cook until almost dry on the top. If underside gets too brown, turn down heat. These are very hard to turn if they are not cooked enough on the first side. Flip and cook until the middle is no longer wet.
- Layer on a plate and cover tightly. These stay in the fridge well.
