Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
¾ cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 pinch ground cinnamon
2 large eggs
⅓ cup milk, or as needed
1 teaspoon butter, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer cauliflower to a blender and blend until smooth. Measure 1 cup pureed cauliflower and store any remaining in a container in the refrigerator for another use.
  • Stir 1 cup cauliflower puree and cottage cheese together in a large bowl until smooth. Mix flour, brown sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and cinnamon into cauliflower mixture until batter is just mixed and thickened. Add eggs to batter until thoroughly mixed. Stir milk into batter, adding 1 tablespoon more at a time if needed, until batter is smooth.
  • Heat butter in a large frying pan over medium heat; drop heaping tablespoons batter into the melted butter. Cook until batter begins to bubble, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip pancakes and cook other side until browned, 3 to 4 more minutes. The inside of these pancakes will be softer than traditional pancakes. Repeat with remaining batter.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pancakes turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I made these pancakes with almond milk instead of regular milk, and they turned out great! They were just as fluffy and flavorful as the original recipe.

These pancakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices or herbs next time.

I'm not a big fan of cauliflower, but I actually really liked these pancakes! The cottage cheese helped to offset the cauliflower flavor, and the pancakes were really light and fluffy.

These pancakes were a little bit too dense for my taste, but they were still pretty good. I think I would try using less cauliflower next time.
